Harley didn't have no education he could hardly read and write |
|
He was locked into a dead-end occupation his future didn't look too bright |
|
He worked eighteen years on the assembly line |
|
Just gettin' by with a little bit of overtime |
|
And that could be the end of this story of mine but it's just the beginning |
|
Late one night when he was workin' graveyard Harley got himself this big idea |
|
All he's have to do is change one little screw a save millions of dollars a year |
|
So he worked and he saved till he could open his own shop |
|
Money started rollin' in like it wasn't gonna stop |
|
So Harley bought a mountain built a mansion on top |
|
So the losers could see whom was winnin' |
|
Only in America with nothin' but a dream only in America where every man's king |
|
First Harley's daughter Janet found a guru she gave him everything she owned |
|
Then Harley junior joined some kind of rockband |
|
And walked around all day about half stoned |
|
His wife watched TV all the time cause she got bored |
|
Then one day she found a TV preacher she adored |
|
And she gave all of Harley's hard earned money to the Lord |
|
Harley started drinkin' wound up in Betty Ford to see if he could by a happy ending |
|
Then some kid who worked in Harley's factory he got himself this big idea |
|
Figured out how to do it with compures drove Harley out of business in a year |
|
Now Harley's back working the assembly line |
|
Just gettin' by with a little bit of overtime |
|
But don't count Harley out cause he ain't the quittin' kind |
|
He stares at that computer with one thing on his mind |
|
How to make them things more user-friendly |
|
Only in America... |
