Pink Houses (Live) 歌詞
Pink Houses (Live) - John Mellencamp
There's a black man with a black cat
Livin' in a black neighborhood
He's got an interstate running' through his front yard
You know he thinks that he's got it so good
And there's a woman in the kitchen
Cleaning' up the evenin' slop
And he looks at her and says
Hey darlin' I can remember when
You could stop a clock
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
Ain't that America somethin' to see baby
Ain't that America home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me
There's a young man in a T-shirt
Listenin' to a rockin' rollin' station
He's got greasy hair greasy smile
He says lord this must be my destination
Cause they told me when I was younger
Boy you're gonna be president
But just like everything else those old crazy dreams
Just kinda came and went
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
Ain't that America somethin' 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
Ooh yeah
And there's winners and there's losers
But they ain't no big deal
Cause the simple man baby pays for the thrills the bills
The pills that kill
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
Ain't that America somethin' 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 somethin' to see baby
Ain't that America home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me
