Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen

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 just 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., now
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.
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 Vietcong
They're still there, he's all gone

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, ain't got nowhere to go
Born in the U.S.A., I was...
Born in the U.S.A., now
Born in the U.S.A.
I'm a long gone daddy in the U.S.A., now
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
I'm a cool rocking daddy in the U.S.A., now
