"American Mellencamp" lyrics - TYLER HUBBARD

TYLER HUBBARD
"American Mellencamp"

[Intro:]
Woah, oh-oh

I remember hearin', "Little Pink Houses"
On the radio in my first truck
Ridin' two lanes of freedom, ain't that a feelin'?
Sixteen and turnin' it up
Passin' tattered, "Old Glory" on a front porch
That song hit me different that day
It was four and a half minutes
All about livin' in nowhere USA

[Chorus:]
Where it's work week money buyin' good, cold beer
And NASCAR runnin' on four Goodyears
Tailgate datin' at the Dairy Queen
That American Mellencamp, small-town dream
Friday night lights from the very top row
And fixer-ups racin' down an old back road
All out chasin' down the same damn thing
That American Mellencamp, small-town dream
(Woah, oh-oh, woah, oh-oh)

Oh, yeah, I'm talkin' 'bout a quarterback
Fallin' for a prom queen
Parkin' in a field till the sun comes up
I'm talkin' 'bout a sweet tea
Sunday afternoon out at Mama's house
Can't forget where I came from (Where I came from)

[Chorus:]
Where it's work week money buyin' good, cold beer
And NASCAR runnin' on four Goodyears
Tailgate datin' at the Dairy Queen
That American Mellencamp, small-town dream
Friday night lights from the very top row
And fixer-ups racin' down an old back road
All out chasin' down the same damn thing
That American Mellencamp, small-town dream
(Woah, oh-oh, woah, oh-oh)

[Bridge:]
I remember hearin' "Little Pink Houses"
On the radio in my first truck

[Chorus:]
Yeah, it's work week money buyin' good, cold beer
And NASCAR runnin' on four Goodyears
Tailgate datin' at the Dairy Queen
That American Mellencamp, small-town dream
Friday-night lights from the very top row (Very top row)
And fixer-ups racin' down an old back road (Old back road)
All out chasin' down the same damn thing (Same damn thing)
That American Mellencamp, small-town dream
That American Mellencamp, small-town dream
