Son Of An American - The So So Glos

I was sitting'

Safe inside my bedroom walls

It wasn’t 1990 at all

But the future scene to be

Just floatin' and everyday seem like the last

I think I’m livin' in the past

The other half move too fast

Gimme thin girl, thin TV

Ice watch, ice coffee

Malt liquor, malt ice cream

I need a condo in the country

White fence 'round the city

Don’t it pay to be so free?

Cause I’m a Son of an American

Thats no lie

Sun’s brighter than its ever been

Why Ain’t I?

Cause Im a Son of an American

That’s Why

Don’t wanna hear about it ever again

Take me out to the ball game

I want to sit in the stands and scream

I wanna root for the losing team

Like that day

The stadium was Shea

And I lived in a rally cap

And the underdog would say

I’m a Son of an American

I tried and tried but I can’t hide

What I am as an American

And all the kids overseas

Can’t never know freedom like me

Cause I’m a Son of an American
