| [00:26.74] |
They pulled in just behind the bridge |
| [00:29.24] |
He lays her down, he frowns |
| [00:32.48] |
Gee my life's a funny thing |
| [00:34.73] |
Am I still too young? |
| [00:38.24] |
He kissed her then and there |
| [00:40.24] |
She took his ring, took his babies |
| [00:43.74] |
It took him minutes, took her nowhere |
| [00:46.74] |
Heaven knows, she'd have taken anything |
| [01:28.92][00:49.73] |
(All night) |
| [01:32.41][00:52.97] |
She wants the young American |
| [01:35.42][00:55.74] |
(Young American, young American) |
| [01:38.41][00:58.74] |
(She wants the young American) |
| [01:40.41][01:00.74] |
(All right) |
| [01:44.15][01:04.24] |
She wants the young American |
| [01:06.58] |
Scanning life through the picture window, |
| [01:08.85] |
She finds the slinky vagabond |
| [01:11.84] |
He coughs as he passes up her red Mustang, but |
| [01:15.09] |
Heaven forbid, she take anything |
| [01:18.09] |
But the freak, and his type, all for nothing, |
| [01:20.85] |
misses a step and cuts his hand. But |
| [01:23.78] |
showing nothing, he swoops like a song |
| [01:25.77] |
She cries Where have all Papas' heroes gone |
| [01:46.80] |
All the way from Washington |
| [01:48.93] |
Her bread winner begs off the bathroom floor |
| [01:51.44] |
We live for just these twenty years |
| [01:54.18] |
Do we have to die for the fifty more? |
| [01:57.81] |
All night |
| [02:01.04] |
He wants the young American |
| [02:04.04] |
(Young American, young American) |
| [02:05.55] |
So young |
| [02:06.81] |
(He wants the young American) |
| [02:09.22] |
(All right) |
| [02:10.96] |
All right |
| [02:12.46] |
He wants the young American |
| [02:26.72] |
Do you remember your President Nixon? |
| [02:32.22] |
Do you remember the bills you have to pay |
| [02:36.46] |
Or even yesterday? |
| [02:52.26] |
Have you have been an un-American? |
| [02:54.76] |
Just you and your idol singing falsetto |
| [02:57.76] |
'bout leather, leather everywhere, and |
| [03:00.51] |
not a myth left from the ghetto |
| [03:03.02] |
Well, well, well, would you carry a razor |
| [03:06.26] |
in case, just in case of depression? |
| [03:09.26] |
Sit on your hands on a bus of survivors, |
| [03:11.75] |
blushing at all the afro-Sheila's |
| [03:14.60] |
Ain't that close to love? |
| [03:17.11] |
Well, ain't that poster love? |
| [03:20.10] |
Well, it ain't that Barbie doll, |
| [03:22.84] |
her heart's been broken just like you have |
| [03:25.91] |
All night |
| [03:30.17] |
You want the young American |
| [03:32.44] |
Young American, young American, you want the young American |
| [03:36.60] |
All right |
| [03:40.91] |
You want the young American |
| [03:43.14] |
You ain't a pimp and you ain't a hustler |
| [03:45.65] |
A pimp's got a Cadi and a lady got a Chrysler |
| [03:48.39] |
Black's got respect and White's got his soul train |
| [03:51.38] |
Mama's got cramps and look at your hands ache |
| [03:54.39] |
(I heard the news today, oh boy) |
| [03:57.14] |
I got a suite and you got defeat |
| [03:59.38] |
Ain't there a man you can say no more? |
| [04:02.41] |
And, ain't there a woman I can sock on the jaw? |
| [04:05.67] |
And, ain't there a child I can hold without judging? |
| [04:08.41] |
Ain't there a pen that will write before they die? |
| [04:11.41] |
Ain't you proud that you've still got faces? |
| [04:13.93] |
Ain't there one damn song that can make me |
| [04:17.43] |
Break down and cry? |
| [04:22.33] |
All night |
| [04:25.58] |
I want the young American |
| [04:28.57] |
(Young American, young American) |
| [04:30.00] |
Young American |
| [04:31.24] |
(I want the young American) |
| [04:33.77] |
(All right) |
| [04:37.01] |
I want the young American, young American |
| [04:39.76] |
(Young American, young American) |
| [04:41.50] |
I want you |
| [04:42.50] |
(I want the young American) |
| [04:44.01] |
I want you want |
| [04:45.24] |
(All right) |
| [04:45.74] |
You want I, I want you, you want I, I want you... |
