"Long Is the Road (Américain)" is the name of a 1984 song recorded by the French singer and songwriter Jean-Jacques Goldman.

The song was covered by Jean-Félix Lalanne in 1990, by Les Fous Chantants in 2000 on their album 1 000 Choristes rendent hommage à Jean-Jacques Goldman, and by Chimène Badi in 2007 for Les Enfoirés' album 2007: La caravane des Enfoirés.

It was performed by Patrick Fiori and Carole Fredericks on May 27, 2000, on the French TV show Tapis rouge.
