Fourteen at the ball park with a glove and bat 
Hittin home runs across the railroad tracks
He likes to rock he likes to roll 
Livin in the USA he’s an American Boy 

Sixteen with his girlfriend she’s his long time steady 
In a chevy by the levy now ready, steady, go 
He likes to rock he likes to roll
Livin in the USA he’s an American Boy

He gives it everything that he’s got
He gives it everything that he’s got 
He’s hotter than a pepper pot 
He’s an American Boy (repeat again)

Eighteen in a uniform he’s off to war
Holdin it together on a foreign shore 
He likes to rock he likes to roll 
Livin in the USA he’s an American Boy 

Twenty-one now he’s married with a wife and kid 
Workin nine to five like his daddy did 
He likes to rock he likes to roll 
Livin in the USA he’s an American Boy
