Generate meaning
1
There's a black man with a black cat
2
Living in a black neighbourhood
3
He's got an interstate runnin' through his front yard
4
You know, he think, that he's got it so good
5
And there's a woman in the kitchen cleanin' up the evening slop
6
And he looks at her and says: "Hey darling, I can remember when you could stop a clock"
7
CHORUS:
8
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
9
Ain't that America we're someting to see baby
10
Ain't that America, home of the free
11
Little pink houses for you and me
12
Well there's a young man in a t-shirt
13
Listening to a rockin' rollin' station
14
He's got a greasy hair, greasy smile
15
He says: "Lord, this must be my destination"
16
'Cuz they told me, when I was younger
17
"Boy, you're gonna be president"
18
But just like everyting else, those old crazy dreams
19
Just kinda came and went
20
CHORUS:
21
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
22
Ain't that America we're someting to see baby
23
Ain't that America, home of the free
24
Little pink houses for you and me
25
Well there's people and more people
26
What do they know know know
27
Go to work in some high rise
28
And vacation down at the Gulf of Mexico
29
Ohhh Yeah
30
And there's winners, and there's losers
31
But they ain't no big deal
32
'Cuz the simple man baby pays for the thrills,
33
The bills and the pills that kill
34
CHORUS:
35
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
36
Ain't that America we're someting to see baby
37
Ain't that America, home of the free
38
Little pink houses for you and me
39
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
40
Ain't that America we're someting to see baby
41
Ain't that America, home of the free
42
Little pink houses for you and me
