If you fly in from Birmingham, you'll get the last gate.
If you flew in from Boston, though, you sure won't have to wait.
[C] And I'm learning a little more [G] every day
[D] about the power of the dollar and the people with white collars
and the good old [G] American way.
I've noticed I don't get much help when they see my blue jeans.
walks up, oh, can I help you please?
And I gain [G] a little aid

Some high society lady says,
Is your horse outside?
No, ma'am, he's between my legs, but you're too fat to ride.
[D] And you're learning _ _ a little more about [A] my ways
and _ _ [E] what I think about your dollar and your white collar
and your good old [A] American way. _
_ _ _ _ If you don't like my nudie boots, I'm sorry about that.
Don't make fun of my hat, too.
Some of you might get knocked flat and [D] you'll learn some more. _ _
_ If you ever pass [A] down our way
_ _ about [E] the folks without the dollars and without white collars,
hell, they are the [A] American way. _ _ _ _ _ _
