For the fun of itā€¦

ā– 

ā Out on the road for forty days
Last night in Little Rock put me in a haze
Sweet, sweet Connie, doinā€™ her act
She had the whole show and thatā€™s a natural fact
Up all night with Freddie King
I got to tell you, pokerā€™s his thing
Booze and ladies, keep me right
As long as we can make it to the show tonight
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re cominā€™ to your town
Weā€™ll help you party it down
Weā€™re an American band
Four young chiquitas in Omaha
Waitinā€™ for the band to return from the show
Feelinā€™ good, feelinā€™ right, itā€™s Saturday night
The hotel detective, he was outta sight
Now these fine ladies, they had a plan
They was out to meet the boys in the band
They said, come on dudes, letā€™s get it on
And we proceeded to tear that hotel down
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re cominā€™ to your town
Weā€™ll help you party it down
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re cominā€™ to your town
Weā€™ll help you party it down
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re cominā€™ to your town
Weā€™ll help you party it down
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re cominā€™ to your town
Weā€™ll help you party it down
Weā€™re an American band
Weā€™re an American band, wooo
Weā€™re an American band, wooo
Weā€™re an American band, wooo āž

Enjoy!

Stay Safe!

  1. “I’m Your Captain” is one of my favorite Grand Funk RR songs. GFR’s version of “Inside Looking Out” is interesting, and it is probably the defining version of ILO, but I like the Animals original version better.
