The Patriotic Ego...Could one Survive 5+ years in the 'custody' of Sadists without a [Super]Ego...? I think not. BORN IN THE U.S.A. Born down in a dead man's town The first kick I took was when I hit the ground You end up like a dog that's been beat too much Till you spend half your life just covering up Born in the U.S.A., I was born in the U.S.A. I was born in the U.S.A., born in the U.S.A. Got in a little hometown jam So they put a rifle in my hand Sent me off to a foreign land To go and kill the yellow man Born in the U.S.A.... Come back home to the refinery Hiring man said "Son if it was up to me" Went down to see my V.A. man He said "Son, don't you understand..." I had a brother at Khe Sahn Fighting off the Viet Cong They're still there, he's all gone He had a woman he loved in Saigon I got a picture of him in her arms now Down in the shadow of the penitentiary Out by the gas fires of the refinery I'm ten years burning down the road Nowhere to run ain't got nowhere to go Born in the U.S.A., I was born in the U.S.A. Born in the U.S.A., I'm a long gone Daddy in the U.S.A. Born in the U.S.A., Born in the U.S.A. Born in the U.S.A., I'm a cool rocking Daddy in the U.S.A. Born In The USA, words and music by Bruce Springsteen copywright 1984 ****************************************************** My First Concert was A Springsteen Show , 12/8/78 at The Summit in Houston...Here is a story that Bruce told about his first guitar: 12/20/78 Interview in Seattle** "Every day about five o'clock this girl walked by the house. She was the kind of girl you would see but you would never go up and talk to her or nothing you know, like we were never gonna talk to nobody cause our noses were so big. Something like that can happen to you in life you know, if you let it get to you. But so anyway we sat there on the stoop...with our big noses...and we watch this girl walk by every single day for I don't know how long. All summer long, and we decided that we were gonna try and get some guitars... go down to the Western Auto store... got my first guitar at the Western Auto store. It was hanging up beside the mufflers. It was $18.95...'Give me that one Mister'. I got the thing and we came back and I played the guitar...he played the tambourine but she'd walk by and wouldn't even notice, wouldn't even look. We'd be out there doing 'Twist and Shout', doing with our moves. That's how I got all these moves. Every day I'd be out in front of my house, you know. Nothing. We'd be sitting there and we'd see Clarence, who we didn't know at all at the time, come by riding on his bicycle with no hands playing a saxophone. We said 'Man if that cat can't get her attention we ain't got a chance'. And I was right. We didn't and we never did. So I don't know where she is now back home maybe." Happy Weekend, bp...
