On the road for forty days
Last night in Little Rock put me in a haze
Sweet, sweet Connie was doin' her act
She had the whole show and that's a natural fact

Up all night with Freddy King
I got to tell you poker's his thing
A-booze 'n ladies keep me right
As long as we can make it to the show tonight

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're coming to your town
We'll help you party
It down
We're an American band

Four young chaquitas in Omaha
Was waitin' for the band to return from the show
Feelin' good, feelin' right, it's Saturday night
The hotel detective he was out-a-sight

Now, these fine ladies they had a plan
They was out to meet the boys in the band
They said: Come on, dudes, let's get it on
And we proceeded to tear that hotel down

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're coming to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American band
