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!
