Fourteen at the ballpark with a glove and bat 
Hittin home runs across the railroads 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 he's got
He gives it everything he's got
He's hotter than a pepper pot 
He's an American Boy

Eighteen with his uniform he's off to war 
Keepin 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 got 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
