๐ Lyrics
Well there's a black man with a black cat
Living in a black neighborhood
He's got an interstate running through his front yard
You know he thinks he's got it so good
And there's a woman in the kitchen
Cleaning up the evening slop
And he looks at her and says
"Darling, I can remember when you could
Stop a clock"
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
Ain't that America, well, something so see baby
Ain't that America home of the free, yeah
Little pink houses for you and me
A living for you and me
Well there's a young man in a T-shirt
Listening to a rockin' rollin' station
He's got a greasy hair and greasy smile
And says "Lord, this must be my destination"
'Cause they told me when I was younger
Boy you're going to 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, well, something 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
'Cause the simple man, baby, pays the bills
For the thrills and the pills that kill
Uh, ain't America for you and me
But ain't that America, girl, it's something 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 well something to see baby
Ain't that America home of the free yeah
Little pink house for you and me
Oh, for you and me
Living in a black neighborhood
He's got an interstate running through his front yard
You know he thinks he's got it so good
And there's a woman in the kitchen
Cleaning up the evening slop
And he looks at her and says
"Darling, I can remember when you could
Stop a clock"
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
Ain't that America, well, something so see baby
Ain't that America home of the free, yeah
Little pink houses for you and me
A living for you and me
Well there's a young man in a T-shirt
Listening to a rockin' rollin' station
He's got a greasy hair and greasy smile
And says "Lord, this must be my destination"
'Cause they told me when I was younger
Boy you're going to 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, well, something 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

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 well something to see baby
Ain't that America home of the free yeah
Little pink house for you and me
Oh, for you and me
