USA - The Tossers

I was born in the USA

Born on the southside of Chicago town

And on warm summer nights we would all gather 'round

Away from irish parents eyes

In the dark with lovers and friends

Hoping it would never end

Smokin' weed and drinkin' brew

Loyalty was what you knew

WE WERE BORN IN THE USA

Everyone know each other and they all know you

The cops the fire the brickies too

And the night when the lights go out

From each house you can hear the sound

Of fights and passion all around

So have a drink and sit with me

You’re all invited to be free

When my brothers went off to the war

With may kids we knew before

We saw the pictures on the news

Of people dying in the street

Pools of blood on the concrete

Many times I’ve prayed before

To bring those kids home from this war

WE WERE BORN IN THE USA

Well where you are from nobody cares

Unless you are from over there

Still you’re welcomed in houses by us all

With Mayor Daley on the wall

Our lady, J.F.K., them all

We will break our bread with you

Because we are nobodies fool

WE WERE BORN IN THE USA

WE WERE BORN IN THE USA

WE WERE BORN IN THE USA
