Intro
16 seconds

(23?

There's a black man
with a black cat

livin' in a black
neighbourhood

He's got an interstate
runnin' through his
front yard
you know he thinks

he's got it so good I

And there's a woman
in the kitchen

cleanin' up
the evenin' slop

And he looks at her
and he says

Hey darlin'
I can remember when
you could stop a clock

Oh but ain't that America
for you and me
ain't that America
somethin' to see baby

Ain't that America

home of the tree
yeah

Oh yeah

for you and me

There's a young man

in a t-shirt

Listenin' to a rock

rollin' station

He's got greasy hair
and greasy smile

he says Lord this must
be my destination

'Cause they told me

when I was younger

But iust like
everything else
those old crazy dreams
iust kinda came and went

Oh but ain't that America
for you and me
ain't that America
somethin' to see baby

Ain't that America

home of the tree
yeah

Little pink houses

for you and me

on little houses

for you and me

Instrumental
47 seconds

Well there's people

and more people

Go to work

in some high rise

And vacation down

the Gulf of Mexico
ooh yeah

And there's winners

and there's losers

But they ain't no big deal

'Cause the simple
man baby

pays for the thrills,
the bills,
the pills that kill

Oh but ain't that America
for you and me
ain't that America
somethin' to see baby

Ain't that America

home of the tree
yeah

Oh but ain't that America
for you and me
ain't that America
somethin' to see baby

Ain't that America

home of the tree
yeah
