AN AMERICAN FAMILY
Writer Bob Corbin

Worked all his life in the railyards
Summer heat winter cold
He sits by the fire, this year he�ll retire
Though he doesn�t really feel all that old
She comes in from the kitchen
And sits on the arm of his chair
He looks up and says �hey lady I love you�
And runs his fingers through her hair
And there�s a picture on the wall of Jesus in the garden
It�s been there since they got the house in �53
Hey they ain�t no big deal, ain�t gonna go down in history
It�s just a little story of an American family
She waited for him in World War 11
He fought the European campaign
Their sin John spent two years in �Nam
But that war wasn�t the same
Billy�s out in L.A.
He�s a lawyer now
They worry he;s so far away
Jeannie got married
And lives there in town
They�re comin� over with the kids today
And there�s a picture on the wall of Jesus in the garden
It�s been there since they got the house in �53
Hey they ain�t no big deal, ain�t gonna go down in history
It�s just a little story of an American family
