Out on the road for forty days

Last night in Little Rock put me in a haze

Sweet, sweet Connie, a-doin' her act

She had the whole show and that's a natural fact



Up all night with Freddie King

I got to tell you, poker's his thing

Booze and ladies keep me right

As long as we can make it to the show tonight



{Refrain}

We're an American band

We're an American band

We come into your town

We'll help you party down

We're an American band



Four young chiquitas in Omaha

Waiting for the band to return from the show

Feelin' good, feelin' right and it's Saturday night

The hotel detective, he was out of sight



Now these fine ladies, they had a plan

They was out to meet the boys in the band

They said, come on, dudes, let's get it on

And we proceeded to tear that hotel down



{Refrain four times}



We're an American band

Ooh

We're an American band

Ooh

We're an American band

Ooh
