If you fly in from Birmingham you'll get the last gate
If you flew in from Boston no you sure won't have to wait
And I'm learnin' a little more everyday
About the power of the dollar and the people with white collars
And the good old American way
I've noticed I don't get much help when they see my blue jeans
Some slick with a suit walks up oh can I help you please
Yes I'm learnin' as I gain a little age
About the power of the dollar and the people with white collars
And the good old American way
[ guitar ]
Some high society lady says is your horse outside
No ma'am he's between my legs but you're too fat to ride
And you're learnin' a little more about my ways
And what I think about your dollar and your white collar
And your good old 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 you'll learn some more if you ever pass down our way
About the folks without the dollars and without white collars
Hell they are the American way
Sooey
