An American Dream - The Dirt Band

An American Dream - The Dirt Band : 1979

An American Dream    

- The Dirt Band

I beg your pardon momma What did you say? 

My mind was drifted off on Martinique Bay

 It's not that I'm not interested you see

 Augusta Georgia is just no place to be 

 I think Jamaican in the moonlight 

Sandy beaches drinkin rum every night 

We got no money momma but we can go 

Well split the difference go to Coconut Grove  

Keep on talkin momma I can't hear 

Your voice it tickles down inside of my ear

 I feel a tropical vacation this year

 Might be the answer to this hillbilly beer 

 I think Jamaican in the moonlight 

Sandy beaches drinkin rum every night 

We got no money momma but we can go 

Well split the difference go to Coconut Grove  

Voila! An American Dream Well 

we can travel girl without any means 

When it's as easy as closin your eyes 

And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign  

Just keep talkin momma I like that sound 

It goes so easy with that rain fallin down

 I think a tropical vacation this year

 Might be the answer to this hillbilly beer, and 

 Voila! An American Dream 

Yeah we can travel girl without any means 

When it's as easy as closin your eyes 

And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign 

 Just think Jamaican in the moonlight

 Sandy beaches drinkin rum every night 

We got no money momma but we can go 

Split the difference go to Coconut Grove
