♫ American Tune ♫ ~ Eva Cassidy

LYRICS:
Many's the time I've been mistaken
And many times confused
Many's the time I've been forsaken
And certainly abused...
But it's all right, it's all right
You can be forever blessed...
When I think of another working day
I've just got to get some rest
I've got to get some rest...

I don't know a soul who's not been battered
Don't have a friend who feels at ease...
Don't know a dream that's not been shattered
Or driven to its knees...
Oh, but it's all right, it's all right...
We've lived so well, so long...
And when I think of the road we've traveled on
So far away from home...
So far away from home...

And I dreamed I was dying
I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
And looking back down at me
Smiled reassuringly...
And I dreamed I was flying
And high up above my eyes could clearly see
The Statue of Liberty
Sailing away to sea...
And I dreamed I was flying...

We come on the ship they call the Mayflower
We come on the ship that sailed the moon
We come in the age's most uncertain hour
And we sing an American tune...
Oh, but it's all right, it's all right
You can be forever blessed...
And when I think of another working day
I've just got to get some rest...
I've got to get some rest...
