I just wanted to report errors concerning the lyrics to
«We’re An American Band» by Grand Funk Railroad.
(Corrections in UPPERCASE letters).
We’re An American Band Grand Funk Railroad
Verse 1
Out on the road for forty days
Last night in little rock put me to haze
LAST NIGHT IN LITTLE ROCK PUT ME IN A HAZE
Sweet sweet Connie doing her act
See had the whole show and that’s a natural fact
SHE HAD THE WHOLE SHOW AND THAT’S A NATURAL FACT
?? Live all night like a king
PLAYING ALL NIGHT WITH FREDDIE KING
?? I gotta tell you polks his name
I GOTTA TELL YOU «POKER’S» HERE TO STING
Booze and ladies keep me right
As Long as we can make it to the show tonight
Chorus
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
Verse 2
Four you chiceetas in Omaha
FOUR YOUNG CHICITAS* IN OMAHA
(Spanish for «young girls»-pronounced «chick-KEE-tas»)
Was waiting for the band to return from the show
Feelin’ good feelin’ right its Saturday night
The hotel detective he was out of sight
Now these fine ladies they had a plan
They was out to meet the boys in the band
The said, «Come on dudes lets get it on»
An we proceeded to tear that hotel down
