Lyrics

[00:18.02] Born down in a dead man's town
[00:21.39] The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
[00:25.66] End up like a dog that's been beat too much
[00:28.82] 'Til you spend half your life just to cover it up, now
[00:34.04] Born in the U.S.A.
[00:37.05] I was born in the U.S.A.
[00:41.00] I was born in the U.S.A.
[00:45.91] Born in the U.S.A., now
[00:50.04] Got in a little hometown jam
[00:53.80] So they put a rifle in my hands
[00:57.84] Send me off to a foreign land
[01:01.52] To go and kill the yellow man
[01:05.77] Born in the U.S.A.
[01:09.01] I was born in the U.S.A.
[01:13.63] Born in the U.S.A.
[01:16.73] I was born in the U.S.A.
[01:21.33] Come back home to the refinery
[01:24.31] Hiring man said, "Son, if it was up to me"
[01:29.44] Went down to see my V.A. man
[01:32.48] He said, "Son, don't you understand, now?"
[01:37.61] 
[01:52.40] I had a brother at Khe Sanh
[01:56.58] Fighting off all the Viet Cong
[01:58.08] They're still there, he's all gone
[02:02.13] 
[02:07.95] He had a woman he loved in Saigon
[02:11.94] I got a picture of him in her arms, now
[02:16.53] 
[02:23.49] Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
[02:26.54] Out by the gas fires of the refinery
[02:30.71] I'm ten years burning down the road
[02:35.49] Nowhere to run, ain't got nowhere to go
[02:39.75] Born in the U.S.A.
[02:42.72] I was born in the U.S.A., now
[02:47.72] Born in the U.S.A.
[02:50.44] I'm a long gone daddy in the U.S.A., now
[02:55.58] Born in the U.S.A.
[02:59.44] Born in the U.S.A.
[03:03.38] Born in the U.S.A.
[03:06.04] I'm a cool rocking daddy in the U.S.A., now
[03:09.23]
