You get born to buy it
And [F#]
I tell you those people out in East LA
They ain't gonna stay there forever
[G#] And if there's anything gonna be in the future
It's gonna be from all [Gm] parts of everything
Not just one white way
Down the middle of [N] the road
So if [G] anybody out there ever grows up
For fuck's [G#] sake
[N]
