Young in America by Erik Dylan Lyrics

[Verse 1]
State of Kansas taught him a lesson
Did 13 months for crystal possession
Cell block tattoo, blue ink on his arm
Can't get a job, can't go back to the farm
To be young in America, young in America

[Verse 2]
The thing about trouble's it'll follow you round
It'll put ya on the front page and put ya in the ground
Another bad habit with nothin' to prove
Damned if you don't, damned if you do
To be young in America, young in America

[Verse 3}
Funny how a highway let's you know that you're livin'
Flatland sunrise won't let you forget it
Roll the windows down, scream out at the top of your lungs
'Cause you and me baby, we was born to run
To be young in America, young in America
[Outro]
Young in America
Young in America
