Aaron Lee Tasjan - Made in America lyrics

Few years back across the heartland, Old Glory Was a no-name kid from a no-name town Learned the hard way about girls and money Thought a lot about getting out Now the radio spit fire from those cheap car stereo speakers Calling him on from a place in the back of his mind Left his folks for a life on the road Never looked back, he was the traveling kind And he was made in America Let his dreams fade in America On his knees straight in America Chasing girls, getting slayed in America Losing money getting paid in America Watched the world afraid in America He had nothing but his troubles in America Got no safety being made in America Most of the time he spent running around Someone was telling to settle down Disguise it with love and disguise up his sound Come [partying] up his thought and then wonder what's next So he found himself a girl and said Hey mama, tell me do you think we could make it last She looked away and let the silence speak for awhile Said, I hate drinking [?] I can't stand talking about my past And they were made in America Let their dreams fade in America On their knees straight in America Loved each other, getting slayed in America Lost good money getting paid in America Watched the world afraid in America They had nothing but their troubles in America Got no safety being made in America Let's float through time and space for a while Every step he takes is a miracle mile Standing, laughing in the midnight rain Chained his heart to a runaway train Religion disguised as a reason to fight TV shows to keep you up all night Found it best to just keep moving along Step over it all, drown out the song And he was made in America Let his dreams fade in America On his knees straight in America Loving love, getting slayed in America Losing money getting paid in America Watched the world afraid in America He had nothing but his troubles in America Got no safety being made in the US of A
