American Me - Billy Joe Shaver

American me, so wild and so free

Crossing the borders did nothing to me

The milk and the honey were power and greed

That’s how it goes, American me

And the sun rising slow in the morning

Makes river lost low like the gold and a tanned hand is fast

The children are waiting as Clement, they’re washing their bodies

And pitchers of wine in the bed by the old, the old?

Long years ago I was there with a Mexican lady

A beautiful body, so graceful and?

sang

A mission bells ranging, we both gave our hearts to each other

Then we made love in the bed of the old?

American me, so wild and so free

Crossing the borders did nothing to me

The milk and the honey were power and greed

That’s how it goes, American me
