allen toussaint - american tune lyrics
[verse 1]
many of the time i’ve been mistaken
and many times confused
yes i’ve fallen down forsaken
and certainly misused
oh but i’m alright i’m alright
i’m just weary to my bones
still you don’t expect to be bright and born divine
so far away from home
so far away from home
i don’t know a soul who’s not been better
i don’t have a friend who feels at ease
i don’t know a dream that’s not been shattered
oh driven to its knees oh
but it’s alright it’s alright
but we’ve lived so well so long
still when i think of the road we’re travelling on
i wonder what’s gone wrong
i can’t help but wonder
what’s gone wrong
and i dreamed i was dying
i dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
looking back down at me
smiled -ssuredly
i dreamed i was flying
high up above my eyes could clearly see
the statue of liberty sailing away to see
dreamed i was flying
but we come on a ship they call the mayflower
we come on a ship that sailed the moon
we come in the hates most uncertain hours
and sang an american tune oh
[chorus]
it’s alright it’s alright it’s alright
you can be forever blessed
still tomorrow’s gonna be another working day
and i’m trying to get some rest
but that’s all i’m trying to get some rest
it’s alright it’s alright it’s alright
you can be forever blessed
still tomorrows gonna be another working day
and i’m trying to get some rest
that’s all i’m trying to get some rest
