Lyrics
There was a black man with a black cat livin' in a black neighborhood
He's got an interstate runnin' through his front yard
You know he thinks he's got it so good
And there's a woman in the kitchen cleanin' up the evenin' slop
And he looks at her and says
Darlin' I can remember when you could stop a clock
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
Ain't that America
We're somethin' to see baby
Ain't that America
Home of the free yeah
Little pink houses for you and me
There for you and me
Well there's a young man in a T-shirt listenin' to a rock and rollin' station
He's got a greasy hair and greasy smile
He says Lord this must be my destination
'Cos they told me when I was younger
Boy you gon' be president
But just like everything else those old crazy dreams just kinda came and went
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
Ain't that America
We're somethin' to see baby
Ain't that America
Home of the free yeah
Little pink houses for you and me
Oh for you and me
Well there's people and more people
What do they know, know, know
Go to work in some high rise and vacation down at the Gulf of Mexico
And there's winners and there's losers but they ain't no big deal
'Cos the simple man baby pays the bills and the thrills and the pills that kill
Us in America for you and me
But ain't that America
Girl we're somethin' to see baby
Ain't that America
Home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me
Oh for you and me
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
Ain't that America
We're somethin' to see baby
Ain't that America
Home of the free yeah
Little pink houses for you and me
Oh for you and me
