[00:24.72]I like my heroes to be honest and strong
[00:32.66]I wear T-shirts and blue jeans
[00:40.68]I try to understand all the cultures of this world
[00:47.69]I'm an American from the Midwest
[00:56.83]When I speak I have a southern drawl
[01:04.16]I mind my manners most of the time
[01:12.34]When you come down here stop and stay hello
[01:19.76]I'm an American from south of the mason Dixon line
[01:29.29]I'm an American I'm an American
[01:35.73]I respect you and your point of view
[01:45.30]I'm an American I'm an American
[01:51.71]And I wish you good luck with whatever you do
[02:16.82]I start my day and I'm ready to work
[02:23.92]I'm responsible and I like to get things done
[02:31.75]If you ever need some help come and look my way
[02:39.60]Cause I try to be here for everyone
[02:49.28]I'm an American I'm an American
[02:55.71]I respect you and your point of view

[03:11.70]And I wish you good luck with whatever you do
[03:44.76]They call me the land of opportunity
[03:52.00]With our agriculture and beautiful movie stars
[04:00.02]We can turn our dreams into a way of life
[04:07.63]So be happy and be who you are
