Well there's a young man in a T-shirt
listin' to a rockin' rollin' station.
He's got greasy hair and a greasy smile that says
"Lord this must be my destination"
'Cause they told me when I was younger "Boy you gonna be President"
But just like ev'rything else those old crazy dreams just kinda came
and went
Oh but ain't thatAmer-i-ca for you and me!- Oh but ain't thatAmer-i-ca somethin' to see baby! Oh but ain't that Amer-i-ca home of the free!--- Yeah little pinkhouses for you and me Oh-- yeah for you and me.ⓘ The tablature cannot be transposed.

Cause the simple man baby pays for the thrills the bills
and the pills that kill.
