In the middle of the American Dream Somethings gone very wrong it seems
people kill people with no regret grabbing and stealing all they can get
and what about our American Kids how will they get hers and his
they need a hand if they're gonna get by without our help their dream will die
how will they do it God help them thru it
that's all there's to it 'cause that's all there is
their crazy teen years in these lean years God help our American Kids

It's never been so hard before the devil parked right at our front door
peddling murder porno mayhem and drugs with too few parents with too few hugs
there's never been less opportunity the government shipped the jobs overseas
our kids are flippin burgers trillions in debt minimum wage is that all they get
how will they do it God help them thru it
that's all there's to it 'cause that's all there is
their crazy teen years in these mean years God help our American Kids

American Kids listen to me find the right ones nowdays it takes three
love of the Savior a good mate who's there you work and you love you pray and you care
how will you do it God helps you thru it
that's all there's to it 'cause that's all there is
your crazy teen years in these obscene years God help you American Kids

God bless you American Kids God bless you American Kids
