Born in the U.S.A.

(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)

Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
You end up like a dog that's been beat too much
'Til you spend half your life just coverin' up now

(Born) born in the USA
I was (born) in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA
(Born) born in the USA

Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
Sent me off to a foreign land (foreign land)
To go and kill my fellow men

(Born) born in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA
(Born) born in the USA

Come back home to the refinery (oh-oh, oh)
Hiring man says, "Son, if it was up to me" (ooh-ooh)
Went down to see my VA man (VA man)
He said, "Son, don't you understand?"
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)

I had a brother at Khe Sanh
Fighting off the Viet Cong
They're still there, he's all gone
(Born in the USA)

He had a woman he loved in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms now
(Born in the USA) oh, no
(Born in the USA) hey, hey

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary (oh-oh, oh)
Out by the gas fires of the refinery now (ooh-ooh)
I'm ten years burnin' down that road
Nowhere to run, nowhere to go

Born in the USA
Born in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA (USA)
I'm a long-gone daddy in the USA now

(Born) born in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA
I'm a cool (born) rockin' daddy in the USA

I'm (born) born in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA
I'm a long-gone daddy in the USA now

(Born) born in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA
I'm a cool rockin' daddy in the USA

I'm (born) born in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA
I was (born) born in the USA
I'm a long-gone daddy in the USA
