I was born in the USA,
But that don't mean I don't have nothin' to say,
I was born in the USA, baby, oh baby.

The world is a strange place, our race is a strange race,
You talk about peace forevermore,
All I read about in the papers is ongoing war!

I was born in the USA,
But that don't mean I don't have nothin' to say,
I was born in the USA, baby, oh baby.

There's too many people, there's too many problems,
There's too much pain, sometimes I feel like I'm going insane!

I was born in the USA,
Sometimes I think I've got a lot to say,
I was born in the USA, baby, oh baby.

(Guitar)

Well, there ain't no doubt about it,
And that's why I've got to sing and shout about it.

I was born in the USA,
That's why I think I've got a lot to say,
I've been livin' in the USA, baby, oh baby.

The world's full of illusions, we gotta see through 'em,
We gotta understand what we were put here for,
Or we'll never reach that faraway shore!

I was born in the USA,
That's why I think I've got a lot to say,
I've been livin' in the USA, baby, oh baby.
