Pink Houses by John Mellencamp


There's a black man with a black cat

Livin' in a black neighborhood

He's got an interstate runnin' through his front yard

You know he thinks that he's got it so good

 

And there's a woman in the kitchen

Cleanin' up 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 yeah

Little pink houses for you and me

Oh yeah for you and me oh

 

Well there's a young man in a t-shirt

Listenin' to a rock 'n' rollin' station

He's got a greasy hair greasy smile

He says "lord this must be my destination"

'cause they told me when i was younger

Said "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 yeah

Little pink houses for you and me

Oh built baby 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 ooo yeah

 

And there's winners and there's losers

But they ain't no big deal

'cause the simple man baby pays 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 yeah

Little pink houses for you and me ooo

Ooo yeah

 

Ain't that america for you and me

Ain't that america hey with somethin' to see baby

Ain't that america oh the home of the free ooo yeah yeah yeah

Little pink houses made for you and me

Ooo yeah ooo yeah
