Alright there
One, two, one, two, three, four
Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
End up like a dog that's been beat too much
'Til you spend half your life to cover it up, now
Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
Send me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow man
Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man says, "son, if it was up to me"
Went down to see my V.A. man
He said, "son, don't you understand, now?"
I had a brother at Khe Sahn, fighting off the Viet Cong
They're still there, he's all gone, gone, gone, gone now
He had a woman he loved in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms, now
Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I'm ten years burning down the road
Nowhere to run, nowhere to go
Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I'm a long gone daddy in the U.S.A.
Well I'm cool rocking daddy in the U.S.A., now
One, two
