Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ooh, hear me
Why, oh why can't I let you in my home?
Since all the bridges gone
I suppose I can live next door
[Verse 2]
Are you glad to be in America?
Are you glad to be in America?
Are you glad to be in America?
Are you glad to be in America?
[Verse 3]
Ooh
All the love we share
All the friends and everything that we built
Why, oh why can't you and I
Just take over?
Why can't I just
Hey, ooh
[Verse 4]
What you say
Every time I see you
Brother, brother, brother, brother
Tell me, tell me, tell me please
How long, how long?
Oh, tell me what to do
Tell me how you treated me
Officer, grab him and take him out of here before somebody step on him
[Verse 5]
Are you glad to be in America?
We all the same, drive Cadillac car
The barbecue, the caviar
In America they sure can get fired up
[Verse 6]
Ooh
All the love that we share
All the friends and everything that, oh baby, we built
Why, oh why can't you and I
Just take over?
Tell 'em, tell 'em, tell 'em
