Afi Born In The Usa Lyrics

BORN IN THE USA
Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took “ues” (was) when I hit the ground
End up like a dog that's been beat too much
Till you spend half your life just covering 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 hands
Sent me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow man

Born in the U.S.A....I was born in U.S.A ahh
Born in the U.S.A. I was born in the U.S.A.

Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man said “son if it was up to me”
Went down to see my V.A. man
He said “son, don't you understand now”
(ohh yeah ohh no no. no no no}

I had a brother at Khe Sahn Fighting off them a Viet cong
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 an'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

Fade Off
(Ohh no no no no no no. ohh no no.nononono no. Whooohh no no no.. hoo haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa waaaha.. waaaahoo tell ya son I'm a.ohh no no no no)
