Born down in a dead man's town---
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground---
You can end up like a dog, who's been beat too much
Its a" Mad Hatter" life, just covering up
( Chorus ):
Born in the USA(I was)
" "
" "----( I was)
" " now--

---
Got in a little hometown jam---
Got in trouble, yeah, with my hands
Sent me off to a foreign land---
to go and kill the yellow man---
( Chorus )
Come back home to all the finery
I was back, as if, it was up to me---
went down to see my VA man ( He said, )
" Son, don't you understand---now---
( Chorus )
Oh, yeah
Oh, no no no no
---
I had a brother back in Arkansas---
who had another fighting Viet- Cong---
I'm still there---
He's all--- gone---
He had a woman, he loved, in Saigon
I got a picture of her now, at home, Child
( Chorus )
I worked down in the shadow of the Penitentiary,
I had gas bills ,I had a family
Several years further, down the road
Nowhere to run, I had nowhere to go---
--

Born in the USA
I was born in the USA now---
Born in the USA
I'm a long gone Daddy in a USA, now--
( Chorus )
I'm her true rocking Daddy in the USA
