Lyrics Struggle Jennings – American Dreams
Text:
Coulda been a cowboy
Coulda been a rockstar
Riding in a fancy car
But dreams only go so far
Gave it all for you
Lost it all for you
Hope you miss me too
Daddy was a cowboy
Partied like a rockstar
I wanna be a superstar
But dreams only go so far
I need you to understand where I went wrong
This pain runs deep, eats my alive yeah, my heart’s gone
Why can’t dreams come true? Lost my soul for you
If you knew what I’d do just to prove to you
Grandpa drove a nice car
Told me get myself a day job (oh no)
Told me get myself a day job
Middle finger to the world
Dreams were meant to chase ’em
Coulda been a cowboy
Coulda been a rockstar
Riding in a fancy car
But dreams only go so far
Gave it all for you
Gave it all for you
Lost it all for you
Hope you miss me too
Uh, love has never been that simple, always leave resentful
I’ve been handed a few hearts, I never handled any gentle
Now I got a nympho dancing to my tempo
My world crashing like the cymbals on one of ?
instrumentals
Shut up and just listen while I’m venting
Said I’m too ambitious, that this dream is just fictitious
The business is so vicious, and my manner seems a bit malicious
Hungry for success, I heard the taste is so delicious
Revenge is best served cold, if I get hot then I’ma dish it
?
I never wished it even on my opposition
Running with the black cats, never superstitious
Coulda been a cowboy
Coulda been a rockstar
Riding in a fancy car
But dreams only go so far
Gave it all for you
Gave it all for you
Lost it all for you
Hope you miss me too
