Colt Ford – Young Americans lyrics

[Verse 1: Colt Ford]
Where freedom ain't free and gas ain't cheap
But we burn main streets in trucks and Jeeps
With the radio up and the windows down
Tryin' to live big in a small town
Hangin' like a pair of power line sneakers
We were tongue-tied underneath the bleachers
With a hometown honey, a little bit of money, and a hand-me-down ID

[Chorus: Charles Kelley & Josh Kelley]
Singin' "Free Bird" and "Free Fallin'"
Senior class and backwoods ballin'
Minimum wage burnin' holes in our pockets
Cups half full with a hole in the bottom
Singin' "Sweet Home" and "Don't Stop Believin'"
No plans that we can't start dreamin'
Short term lovers and lifelong friends
Young Americans

[Verse 2: Colt Ford]
Mom and pop, bottom shelf, top problem
We were flyin' high on a zig-zag rocket
We all knew it all but we didn't know nothin'
Livin' off lovin' and laidback buzzin'

[Chorus: Charles Kelley & Josh Kelley]
Singin' "Free Bird" and "Free Fallin'"
Senior class and backwoods ballin'
Minimum wage burnin' holes in our pockets
Cups half full with a hole in the bottom
Singin' "Sweet Home" and "Don't Stop Believin'"
No plans that we can't start dreamin'
Short term lovers and lifelong friends
Young Americans

[Bridge: Charles Kelley]
Wild-eyed and livin' life
Full speed with the hammer down
All we need is right here, right now

[Chorus: Charles Kelley & Josh Kelley & Colt Ford]
Singin' "Free Bird" and "Free Fallin'"
Senior class, backwoods ballin'
Minimum wage burnin' holes in our pockets
Cups half full with a hole in the bottom
Singin' "Free Bird" and "Free Fallin'"
Senior class and backwoods ballin'
Minimum wage burnin' holes in our pockets
Cups half full with a hole in the bottom
Singin' "Sweet Home" and "Don't Stop Believin'"
No plans that we can't start dreamin'
Short term lovers and lifelong friends
Singin' "Free Bird" and "Free Fallin'"
Senior class and backwoods ballin'
Minimum wage burnin' holes in our pockets
Cups half full with a hole in the bottom
Singin' "Sweet Home" and "Don't Stop Believin'"
No plans that we can't start dreamin'
Short term lovers and lifelong friends
Young Americans, yeah
Young Americans
