Typical American Boy (Remastered)

You're a typical American boy from a typical American home Started out with a couple of breaks You couldn't leave well enough alone You had to keep on messing around with stuff you didn't understand You were miserable as a child and you're even worse as a man Didn't make it hanging around the House you wasn't having very much fun Should have got a job in New Jersey But you're a play piece son of a gun You drifted into the city looking for something to do Every day was different and it was always something new You were always ready to try something that you ain't tried Pretty soon your mind said "Son you better look for a place to hide" You didn't do to well in college, didn't dig the intellectual scene Never soaked up very much knowledge So you thought about joining the marines Oh that stuff didn't last too long and you never learned how to fight But you sure learned how to get right tonight You seemed to have lost direction, wandered from bar to bar Everybody in the whole damn place is wondering who you are I believe you would go on home if you had any place to go But there ain't nobody waiting for You that you would even care to know If you spoke the language you could move to a foreign land But people talk to you in English here and you still don't understand Oh baby all right. But you sure know how to get right tonight Yes out of the darkness you follow that neon light And you sure know how to get right tonight Oh baby all right. You sure know how to get right tonight
