We're Polaroid pictures in a shoebox
Sons and daughters of the baby boom.
We are needle on the vinyl
Intoxicated on itunes

We are pilgrims and minutemen, pacifists and veterans
Scotch-Irish to the the Carolinas
Sailing New York Harbor
All the way through Ellis Island

Colonel Sanders, Southern Granders, Yankee Doodle Danders
Your story, my story, Ole Glory still waves
and we're pretty as a picture
The American Face
We're the red-headed girl in a Dairy Queen hat
Low-rider with the windows rolled down
Skinny homecoming queen thinks she's too fat
The heart of Saturday night kids rock and rollin' downtown

Atlantic City and the Colorado Ridge
Ode to Billy Joel and the Tallahatchie Bridge
Heartbreak Hotel and Amazing Grace
Ain't we pretty as a picture
The American Face
Yeah, The American Face

We're the grass growed up round a '69 Chevy
We're Born to Be Wild, Petty On The Levy
Holy ghost churches, politicians on perches
Friday night heroes with blood on their jerseys

Tears on a soldier's airline ticket
Eight second ride down in Corpus Christi
Big wheels, big dreams and little league fans
The blood, sweat and tears, every woman and man, yeah.

The American Face
The American Face
The American Face (yeah)
The American Face (yeah) 
The American Face (yeah)
The American Face

It's A Road Less Traveled and A Trail of Tears
Route 66 and The Man in the Mirror
We're I Walk the Line and I Have a Dream
We ain't always pretty but it's a beautiful thing.
