Or, if that's not close enough -
I was born in east L.A.
Born in the USA,
I was, born in the USA
I was born
In Saginaw Michigan
The son
Of a Saginaw fisherman - Lefty Frizzlefrazzle
The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man.
The only one who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man.
He was, he was...
Yes he was
Dusty Springfield
Son of a son of a sailor...
"I'm Popeye the sailor man......."
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know that she's half crazy
But that's why you want to be there
don't know why I love her like I do
All the changes you put me through
Take my money, my cigarettes
I haven't seen the worst of it yet
I wanna know that you'll tell me
I love to stay
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Take me to the river, dip me in the water
I want to be in America
Ok by me in America
And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear
Did you ever go clear?
Ah the last time we saw you you looked so much older
Ah, but i was so much older then
I'm younger than that now . . .
How old do you think I am, he said
Well I told him I didn't know
I don't know how to love him
What to do, how to move him
He's a man
He's just a man
After all he's just a man
Stand by your man
Give him all the love you can
Everybody stand, stand STAND!!!!
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see,
No, I won't be afraid,
No, I won't be afraid,
Just as long as you stand,
Stand by me.
I see a bad moon rising,
I see trouble on the way...
Oh here it comes
Here comes the night
