Lyric

Let’s sing along with the lyrics!

We ain’t East, we ain’t WestWe ain’t left, we ain’t rightWe ain’t black, we ain’t whiteWe just came here to drinkWe’re all mud flap suburbansAll ball caps and turbansAll prom queens and strippersWhere the whole kitchen sink and then hereWe’re the same, everyone knows your name
We just raise up our glassWe don’t give a rat’s assIf you’re a Democrat or RepublicanWe’re happy to be here and that you can seeWe’re just all drunk Americans
We ain’t second ex-wifesWe ain’t cowboys or redskinsAin’t preachers or kingpinsWe’re just having funWe’re all suits in blue collarsShort orders, long haulersPaper and plastic, too old and too youngCEOs, GEDs, DUIs, FBIs, PhDs
And we raise up our glassWe don’t give a rat’s assIf your belly’s too fat, or your wallet’s too thinWe’re happy to be here and that you can seeWe’re just all drunk AmericansAll drunk Americans
We’ve been in, we’ve been outWe’ve been cool, we’ve been weirdThank God we’re still hereIn the land of the freeAnd we all, singin’ wrongBut we all sing alongSing along
We just raise up our glassWe don’t give a rat’s assIf you’re a Democrat or RepublicanWe’re happy to be here and that you can seeWe’re just all drunk Americans
In these neon lightsWe’re all stars, we’re all strapsAnd we’re all drunk Americans
