Songtexte All - American - Jr. , Sammy Davis

My mother said
Don't screw around
Based on experience I have found
If I did
She would say
You'll only be sorry on Labor Day

I'm an all-American beauty
Selling all-American dreams
They're the kind Horatio Alger said come true
I'm a glittering example
Of democracy at work
I'm an all-American Irish-Polish Jew

I'm an all-American symbol
Of executive success
From stenographer to corporate lady whiz
Anybody can president
Of these great United States
And to prove it, almost anybody is

Daddy couldn't utter a word of English
But he became the multi-est millionaire
Mommy and I are proud of Daddy's poino shops
His all-American dream was finally there

There is only one thing missing
From my all-American life
That's a man who'll make our marriage his career
He will learn to cook and clean for me
And drive me home from work
In an all-American car that lasts a year

Since first I went to college
People saw what I could be
The football players voted me
Miss Touchdown '63
Since then I've had to fight the fight for
Women's liberty
So here comes Laurie
I'm as clean as Maureen
Liberty loving Laurie
That's me
(Laurie, Laurie, Laurie)
