They pulled in just behind the fridge,[00:00:27]
He lays he down, he frowns[00:00:29]
Gee my life's a funny thing, am I still too young?[00:00:32]
He kissed her then and there,[00:00:37]
She took his ring, took his babies[00:00:40]
It took him minutes, took her no-where[00:00:43]
Heaven knows, she'd've taken anything, but{Chorus, *she* version}[00:00:47]
*She* wants the young American[00:00:52]
But *she* wants the young American[00:01:04]
Scanning life through the picture window,[00:01:07]
[Doo-doo-doo-woo[00:01:09]
[Doo-doo-doo-woo[00:01:11]
Heaven forbid, she take anything[00:01:15]
But the freak, and his type, all for nothing,[00:01:18]
[Doo-doo-doo-woo[00:01:20]
[Doo-doo-doo-woo[00:01:22]
She cries Where have all Papas' heroes gone? {chorus, *she* version}[00:01:23]
*She* wants the young American[00:01:32]
But *she* wants the young American[00:01:43]
All the way from Washington,[00:01:47]
Her bread-winner begs off the bathroom floor[00:01:48]
We live for just these twenty years,[00:01:52]
Do we have to die for the fifty more? , had{chorus, *he* version}[00:01:54]
*He* wants the young American[00:02:00]
But *He* wants the young American[00:02:12]
Do you remember[00:02:26]
Your President Nixon?[00:02:29]
[Doo-doo-doo-woo[00:02:30]
The bills you have to pay,[00:02:34]
Or even yesterday?[00:02:36]
Have you have been an un-American?[00:02:52]
[Doo-doo-doo-woo[00:02:54]
[Doo-doo-doo-woo[00:02:57]
Not a myth left from the ghetto[00:03:00]
Well, well, well, would you carry a razor[00:03:03]
[Doo-doo-doo-woo[00:03:05]
[Doo-doo-doo-woo[00:03:08]
Blushing at all the afro-Sheila's[00:03:11]
Ain't that close to love?[00:03:14]
[Doo-doo-doo-woo[00:03:16]
[Doo-doo-doo-woo[00:03:18]
Her heart's been broken just like you have{chorus, *you* version}[00:03:23]
*YOU* wants the young American[00:03:30]
But *YOU* wants the young American[00:03:42]
You ain't a pimp and you ain't a hustler[00:03:43]
A pimps' got a Cadi and a lady got a Chrysler[00:03:45]
Blacks got respect, uhh, whites got his soul train[00:03:48]
Mamas' got cramps, and look at your hands ache[00:03:51]
I got a suite and you got defeat[00:03:58]
Ain't there a man you can say no more?, and[00:03:59]
Ain't there a woman I can sock on the jaw?, and[00:04:03]
Ain't there a child I can hold without judging?[00:04:05]
Ain't there a pen that will write before they die?[00:04:08]
Ain't you proud that you've still got faces?[00:04:11]
Ain't there one damn song that can make me[00:04:13]
Break down and cry?{chorus, *I* version}[00:04:17]
*I* wants the young American[00:04:25]
But *I* wants the young American[00:04:38]
*I* wants the young American[00:04:49]
But *I* wants the young American[00:05:00]
