wesko - born in the u.s.a. (barn sessions) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
born down in a dead man’s town
the first kick i took was when i hit the ground
end up like a dog that’s been beat too much
you spend half your life just covering up, i’m

[chorus]
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

[verse 2]
i got in a little hometown jam
so they put a rifle in my hand
sent me off to a foreign land
to go and k!ll the yellow men

[chorus]
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

[verse 3]
came back home to the refinery
and the hiring man said, “if it was up to me”
i went down to see my va man”
he said, “son, don’t you understand?”
[verse 4]
i had a brother at khe sanh fightin’ off the viet cong
they’re still there, he’s all gone
he had a woman he loved in saigon
i got a picture of her in his arms now

[verse 5]
down in the shadow of the penitentiary
out by the gas fires of the refinery
i’m ten years burnin’ down the road
nowhere to run, ain’t got nowhere to go

[chorus]
born in the u.s.a
i was born in the u.s.a
i was born in the u.s.a
i’m a long gone daddy in the u.s.a
born in the u.s.a
born in the u.s.a
born in the u.s.a
i’m a cool rockin’ daddy in the u.s.a

[instrumental outro]
