What's is the greatest American rock song. Personally I'm a fan of Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen but I'm also watching VH1 Classic and they have Van Halen's, Hot for Teacher on. Perhaps it's David Lee Roth but it seems to apitamize what America is all about.
What's your favortite or vote for best?

Simply to many great rock songs to pick the greatest. The two you mentioned are certainly on the list! Love Van Halen but prefer the Hagar years over Roth.
Keep on rockin'!

American Pie, by Don McLean
This song is more america than if bruce springsteens hometown had little pink houses, and an interstate running through the backyard.

Van Halen's the greatest rock ARTIST. Best song "Dude looks like a Lady" by Aerosmith.

Hotel California. An epic rock song by one of the greatest bands of all time, The Eagles. I could listen to Hotel California a hundred times in a row and still enjoy it. It never gets old. Not to mention, their guitarist is amazing. Hotel California is by far the best American rock song.

I don't think you can limit it to one song, especially since rock and roll has been around for more than 50 years now.
Along the lines of your choice of "Thunder Road", I would have to choose "Born To Run" in the top 25 of the greatest rock songs of all time.

Born To Run...The Boss, however, my personal favorite is Thunder Road.
Van Halen pales in comparison to Springsteen.
