Informação:
A gravação original de U.S. Male foi feita

Unbelievable Guitar and Voice of Jerry Reed (RCA LPM-LSP-3756). Reed

Letra:
Now, I'm a U.S. Male 'cause I was born in a Mississippi town on a Sunday
morn
Now Mississippi just happens to occupy a place in
the south eastern portion of this here United States
Now that's a matter of fact, buddy and you know it
well
So I just call myself the U.S. Male, that's
M-A-L-E, son. That's me!
Now I said all that to say all this I've been
watchin' the way you've been watchin' my miss
For the last three weeks you been hot on her trail
and you kinda upset this U.S. Male
You touch her once with your greasy hands I'm
gonna stretch your neck like a long rubber band
She's wearin' a ring that I bought her on sale and
that makes her the property of this U.S. Male
1. You better not mess with the U.S. Male my
friend
The U.S. Male gets mad, he's gonna do you in
You know what's good for yourself son, you better
find somebody else son
Don't tamper with the property of the U.S. Male
Through the rain and the heat and the sleet and
the snow the U.S. Male is on his toes
Quit watchin' my woman, for that ain't wise you
ain't pullin' no wool over this boy's eyes
I catch you 'round my woman, champ, I'm gonna
leave your head 'bout the shape of a stamp
Kinda flattened out, so you'll do well to quit
playin' games with this U.S. Male
1. (repete)
All right... now I'm gonna tell it like it is son
I catch you messin' 'round with that woman of mine
I'm gonna lay one on ya’
You're talkin' to the U.S. Male
The American U.S. Male
