Reckless like I promised

Baby, do it

Well, you saved me

When I think it’s all she wrote, looking through my holy quotes
Looking for the antidote, and I think I’ve found that it’s life
Life, my nigga, it’s life, …

Doublewide Quick Stop midnight T-top1
Jack in her Cherry Coke town2
Momma and daddy put their roots right here
‘Cause this is where the car broke down3
Yellow dog school bus kickin’ up red dust
Pickin’ us up by a barbed wire fence
MTV on the RCA, no A/C in the vents4
We were Jesus save me, blue jean baby5
Born in the USA6
Trailer park truck stop, faded little map dots7
New York to LA
We were teenage dreamin’, front seat leanin’8
Baby, come give me a kiss
Put me on the cover of the Rolling Stone
Uptown down home American kids9
Growin’ up in little pink houses
Makin’ out on living room couches
Blowin’ that smoke10 on Saturday night
A little messed up, but we’re all alright11
Baptist church parkin’ lot, tryin’ not to get caught
Take her home and give her your jacket12
Makin’ it to second base,13 but sayin’ you went all the way14
Monday afternoon at practice
Sister’s got a boyfriend daddy doesn’t like15
Now he’s sittin’ out back, 3030 in his lap
In the blue bug zapper light16
We were Jesus save 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 Saturday night
A little messed up, but we’re all alright
