American Music Over The Years

2. Okie from Muskogee" This gave what they called “hoppie-haters” way to call out the hoppies! We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee,We don't take our trips on LSD;We don't burn our draft cards down on Main Street,We like livin' right and bein' free.We don't make a party out of lovin',We like holdin' hands and pitchin' woo;We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy,Like the hippies out in San Francisco do.I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,A place where even squares can have a ball;We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all.

3. I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin'-to-Die Rag And it's one two threeWhat are we fighting forDon't ask me, I don't give a damnNext stop is VietnamAnd it's five six sevenOpen up the Pearly GatesThere ain't no time to wonder whyWhoopie--we're all gonna die. This song is about Vietnam. The guy who this wasn’t for the war as you can tell in the lyrics.

6. Jump on outta bed and I stumble to the kitchen Pour myself a cup of ambition And yawn and stretch and try to come to life Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin' Out on the street the traffic starts jumpin' With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5 Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin' They just use your mind and they never give you credit It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it 9 to 5, for service and devotion You would think that I would deserve a fat promotion Want to move ahead but the boss won't seem to let me I swear sometimes that man is out to get me! They let you dream just to watch 'em shatter You're just a step on the boss-man's ladder But you got dreams he'll never take away You're in the same boat with a lotta your friends Waitin' for the day your ship'll come in 'n' the tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll your way Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin' They just use your mind and you never get the credit It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it 9 to 5, yeah they got you where they want you There's a better life, and you dream about it, don't you? It's a rich man's game no matter what they call it And you spend your life puttin' money in his wallet 9 to 5, whoa what a way to make a livin' 'stead-a gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin' They just use your mind and they never give you credit It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it 9 to 5, yeah they done got you where they want you FADE There's a better life, and you dream about it, don't you? It's a rich man's game no matter what they call it This song about a normal day that must American people go throw Monday-Friday. 9 to 5

7. Let's goSteve walks warily down the street With the brim pulled way down low Ain't no sound but the sound of his feetMachine guns ready to go Are you ready Are you ready for this Are you hanging on the edge of your seat Out of the doorway the bullets rip To the sound of the beat, yeeeeah Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust And another one gone And another one gone Another one bites the dust, hey Hey, I'm gonna get you too Another one bites the dust How do you think I'm going to get alongWithout you, when you're gone You took me for everything that I hadAnd kicked me out on my own Are you happy, are you satisfied How long can you stand the heat Out of the doorway the bullets rip To the sound of the beat Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust, hey, hey Another one bites the dust, heeeeeey There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man And bring him to the ground You can beat him You can cheat him you can treat him bad and leave him When he's down, yeahBut I'm ready, yes I'm ready for you I'm standing on my own two feet Out of the doorway the bullets rip Repeating the sound of the beat Oooooh, yeahAnother one bites the dust Another one bites the dust And another one gone And another one gone Another one bites the dust, hey Hey, I'm gonna get you too Another one bites the dust I think that this song tells about how people are trying to out do one another because they basically want to see the other one fall on his/her’s face. Another One Bites The Dust
