The American Way with lyrics- Hank Williams Jr. chords
Start Jamming...
If you fly in from Birmingham, you'll get the last gate.
If you flew in from Boston, though, you sure won't have to wait.
And [C] I'm learning a little more [G] every day
[D] about the power of the dollar, and the people with white collars,
and the good old [G] American way.
I've noticed I don't get much help when they see my blue jeans.
Some slick where the soup walks up, oh, can I help you please?
[C] Yes, I'm learning.
And I gain [G] a little aid
[D] about the power of the dollar, and the people with white collars,
and the good old [Gm] American [G] way.

Some high society lady says, is your horse outside?
No, ma'am, he's between my legs, but you're too fat to ride.
[D] And you're learning a little more about [A] my ways,
and [E] what I think about your dollar, and your white collar,
and your good old [A] American way.
If you don't like my nudie boots, I'm sorry about that.
Don't make fun of my hat, too.
You might get knocked flat and [D] you'll learn some more.
If you ever pass [A] down our way,
about [E] the folks without the dollars,
and without white collars,
hell, they are the [A] American way.
Do it!
