  S1:
  Doublewide Quick Stop midnight T--top 

  Jack in her Cherry Coke town  

  Momma and Daddy put their roots right here 

  ‘Cause this is where the car broke down  

  Yellow dawn school bus kickin’ up red dust 

  Pickin’ us up by a barbed wire fence  

  M--T--V on the R--C--A 

  No A/C in the vents

  R1:
  We were Jesus saved me, blue jean baby 

  Born in the USA 

  Trailer park truck stop, faded little map dots 

  New York to LA 

  We were teenage dreamin’, front seat leanin’ 

  Baby, come give me a kiss 

  Put me on the cover of the Rolling Stone 

  Uptown down home American kids 

  Growin’ up in little pink houses 

  Makin’ out on living room couches 

  Blowin’ that smoke on a Saturday night  

  A little messed up, but we’re all alright

  S2:
  Baptist church parkin’ lot, tryin’ not to get caught 

  Take her home and give her your jacket  

  Makin’ it to second base, but sayin’ you went all the way 

  Monday afternoon at practice  

  Sister's got a boy---friend 

  Daddy doesn’t like, now he’s  

  Sittin’ out back, .30-.30 in his lap 

  In the blue bug zapper light
