I remember it well, I was just about three
My dad said, "Son what do you want to be?"
It didn't ring no bells but I said
"Daddy I'm a bit too young, what do you want from me?"I'm much older now, I'm almost a man
I can do anything, you bet I can
Raise a family, now wouldn't that be grand
So sorry, but I got bigger plansI'll just be anything in the world today
Something like a preacher, a teacher, a baseball player
Those kind of things I just don't care
I want to represent the U.S.A.The American dream
