They pulled in just behind the bridge | |
He lays her down he frowns | |
Gee my life's a funny thing | |
am I still too young | |
He kissed her then and there | |
She took his ring took his babies | |
It took him minutes took her nowhere | |
Heaven knows she'd have taken anything but | |
All night | |
She wants the young American | |
Young American young American | |
she wants the young American | |
All right | |
She wants the young American | |
All the way from Washington | |
Her bread-winner begs off the bathroom floor | |
We live for just these twenty years | |
Do we have to die for the fifty more | |
All night | |
She wants the young American | |
Young American young American | |
she wants the young American | |
All right | |
She wants the young America | |
Do you remember your President Nixon | |
Do you remember the bills you have to pay | |
Or even yesterday | |
You ain't a pimp and you ain't a hustler | |
A pimp's got a Cadi | |
and a lady got a Chrysler | |
Black's got respect | |
and white's got his soul train | |
Mama's got cramps | |
and look at your hands ache | |
I heard the news today oh boy | |
I got a suite and you got defeat | |
Ain't there a man you can say no more | |
And ain't there a | |
woman I can sock on the jaw | |
And ain't there a | |
child I can hold without judging | |
Ain't there a pen | |
that will write before they die | |
Ain't you proud that you've still got faces | |
Ain't there one damn song that can make me | |
Break down and cry | |
All night | |
She wants the young American | |
Young American young American | |
she wants the young American | |
All right | |
She wants the young America | |
young America | |
Young American young American | |
she wants the young American | |
All right |
