1. 개요

미국의 락 밴드 그랜드 펑크 레일로드가 1973년 7월 2일에 발매한 싱글이며 7집 앨범 We're an American Band의 첫 싱글이다.

2. 상세

영국 밴드들이 70년대 초반 미국 락 씬에서 큰 지분을 차지하고 있었는데, 그랜드 펑크 레일로드는 이에 대항하고자 자신들이 미국 밴드라는 사실을 자랑스럽게 얘기했다.

3. 가사

Out on the road for forty days
Last night in Little Rock put me in a haze
Sweet, sweet Connie, doin' her act
She had the whole show and that's a natural fact
Up all night with Freddie King
I got to tell you, poker's his thing
Booze and ladies, keep me right
As long as we can make it to the show tonight

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're comin' to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American band

Four young chiquitas in Omaha
Waitin' for the band to return from the show
Feelin' good, feelin' right, it's Saturday night
The hotel detective, he was outta sight
Now these fine ladies, they had a plan
They was out to meet the boys in the band
They said, "Come on dudes, let's get it on"
And we proceeded to tear that hotel down

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're comin' to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American band

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're comin' to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American band

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're comin' to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American band

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're comin' to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American band

We're an American band, wooo
We're an American band, wooo
We're an American band, wooo
