Born in the u.s.a. lyrics by Bruce springsteen

Album: 18 tracks


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 covering up

(Chorus:)
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.

I got in a little hometown jam
And, so, they put a rifle in my hands
Sent me off to Vietnam
To go and kill the yellow man

(Repeat chorus)

Come back home to the refineries
Hiring man says, "Son, if it was up to me..."
I go down to see the V.A. man
He says, "Son, don't you understand?"

(Repeat chorus)

I had a buddy at Khe Sahn
Fighting off the Viet Cong
They're still there, he's all gone
He had a little girl in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I'm ten years down the road
Nowhere to run, ain't got nowhere to go

I'm a long gone daddy in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
I'm a cool rocking daddy in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
