Verse 1 >
Strum: DUDUUDU
There's a black man With a black cat
Livin' in a black neighborhood
He's got a interstate runin' through his front yard
You know he thinks he's got it so good
There's a woman In the kitchen
Cleanin' up the evenin' slop
And he looks at her and says hey darlin
I remember when you could stop a clock
Chorus >
Strum: DUDUUDU
Oh but ain't America for you and me Ain't that America
Somethin' to see baby Ain't that America home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me
Riff 1 x2
There's a young man In a t-shirt
Listnin' to a rock n' roll station
He's got greasy hair greasy smile
He says Lord this must be my destination
Cuz they told me When i was younger
Said boy you're gonna be president
Just like everything else those old dreams kinda went away
Oh well ain't that America for you and me Ain't that America
Somethin' to see baby Ain't that America home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me
Riff 1 x3
Solo >

| | | | x4
Well there's people And more people
But do they no,no,no
Go to work in the summer
And vacation down at the Gulf of Mexico
And there's winners And there's losers
Thinkin' no big deal Cuz the simple man baby
Pays the thrills the bills,the bills that kill
Oh but ain't that America for you and me Ain't that America
Sometin' to see baby Ain't that America home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me
Riff 1 x4
ENJOY!!!
