[Verse 1]
Johnny was born in the heartland
Raised in a little farm house
He worked the land with his two hands
Didn't wanna let his daddy down
Taught to beat the Bible
Dated the homecoming queen
After graduation and two pink lines
He was chasin' that American dream

[Chorus]
The one that we all believe in
We all wanna be free
But a 30 year loan and overtime weeks
Keep us chasin' that American dream

[Verse 2]
Annie is a real good mother
Stays at home with the kids
With Johnny gone all day long
She wonderin' if this is it
Months lasts longer than money
Johnny's coming apart at the seams
By the looks of it's all it' funny
That we call this the American dream


[Chorus]
The one that we all believe in
We all wanna be free
But a 30 year loan and overtime weeks
Keep us chasin' that American dream

[Bridge]
We thank the ones who sacrificed
It's the ultimate price they paid
But it's hard to enjoy that freedom
When Uncle Sam's got you slaving away, yeah

[Chorus]
The one that we all believe in
We all wanna be free
But a 30 year loan and overtime weeks
Keep us chasin' that American dream
Yeah, chasin' that American dream
Oh, chasin' that American dream
Chasin' that American dream
Hey, oh yeah
