| I woke up from a movie I immediately forgot
|
| Got a heartache on the bottom and a headache on the top
|
| The part of me that hurts the worst is the one I just can’t spot
|
| And it’s all American made
|
| Through everywhere I go, somebody puts me in the dirt
|
| And everything I say, somebody says they said it first
|
| But I don’t need ten million, baby, just give me one that works
|
| It’s all American made
|
| (In some live versions)
|
| Well all the Midwest farms are turning into plastic homes
|
| And my uncle started drinking when the bank denied the loan
|
| But now it’s liver failure and there’s mad cows being cloned
|
| And it’s all American made
|
| I have been all over but I can’t help feeling stuck
|
| Something in my bloodline or something in my gut
|
| Says go to California in a rusted pickup truck
|
| That’s all American made
|
| 1987 and I didn’t know it then
|
| Reagan was selling weapons to the leaders of Iran
|
| And it won’t be the first time and, baby, it won’t be the end
|
| They were all American made
|
| But I was just a child unaware of the effects
|
| Raised on sports and Jesus and all the usual suspects
|
| So tell me, Mr. Petty, what do you think will happen next
|
| That’s all American made
|
| I wonder if the president gets much sleep at night
|
| And if the folks on welfare are making it alright
|
| I’m dreaming of that highway that stretches out of sight
|
| That’s all American made
|
| That’s all American made
|
| It’s all, it’s all American made |
