| Harley didn’t have no education, he could hardly read and write
|
| He was locked into a dead-end occupation, his future didn’t look too bright
|
| He worked eighteen years on the assembly line
|
| Just getting by with a little bit of overtime
|
| And that could be the end of this story of mine but it’s just the beginning
|
| Late one night when he was working on the graveyard, Harley got himself this
|
| big idea
|
| All he’d have to do is change one little screw, save millions of dollars a year
|
| So he worked and he saved until he could open his own shop
|
| Money started rolling in like it wasn’t going to stop
|
| So Harley bought a mountain, built a mansion on top
|
| So the losers could see whom was winning
|
| Only in America with nothing but a dream, only in America where every man’s king
|
| First Harley’s daughter, Janet, found a guru she gave him everything she owned
|
| Then Harley junior joined some kind of rock band
|
| And walked around all day about half stoned
|
| His wife watched TV all the time because she got bored
|
| Then one day she found a TV preacher she adored
|
| And she gave all of Harley’s hard earned money to the Lord
|
| Harley started drinking, wound up in Betty Ford to see if he could buy a happy
|
| ending
|
| Then some kid who worked in Harley’s factory, he got himself this big idea
|
| Figured out how to do it with computers, drove Harley out of business in a year
|
| Now Harley’s back working the assembly line
|
| Just getting by with a little bit of overtime
|
| But don’t count Harley out because he isn’t the quitting kind
|
| He stares at that computer with one thing on his mind
|
| How to make them more user-friendly
|
| Only in America
|
| Only in America |
