Pink Houses (Album Version) 歌詞
Pink Houses (Album Version) - John Mellencamp
Theres a black man with a black cat
Living in a black neighbourhood
He's got an interstate runnin through his front yard
You know he think that he's got it so good
And there's a woman in the kitchen
Cleanin up the evening slop
And he looks at her and says: hey darling
I can remember when you could stop a clock
Oh but ain't that america for you and me
Ain't that america were someting to see baby
Ain't that america home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me
Well there's a young man in a t-shirt
Listening to a rockin rollin station
He's got a greasy hair greasy smile
He says: lord this must be my destination
Cuz they told me when I was younger
Boy you're gonna be president
But just like everyting else
Those old crazy dreams
Just kinda came and went
Oh but ain't that america for you and me
Ain't that america were someting to see baby
Ain't that america home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me
Well there's people and more people
What do they know know know
Go to work in some high rise
And vacation down at the gulf of mexico
Ohhh yeah
And there's winners and theres losers
But they ain't no big deal
Cuz the simple man baby pays for the thrills
The bills and the pills that kill
Oh but ain't that america for you and me
Ain't that america were someting to see baby
Ain't that america home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me
Oh but ain't that america for you and me
Ain't that america were someting to see baby
Ain't that america home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me
