Lyric discussion by avg823 

Cover art for Johnny 99 lyrics by Bruce Springsteen

I heard Bruce at a concert talking about how Reagan used Born in the USA as a campaign song for re-election in '84 without his permission. He said that if the president thinks that his songs are pro government, than he obviously hadn't listened to the Nebraska album. This song, Highway Patrolman, and Used Cars are some of the greatest blue collar songs out there.

@avg823 I used to love how he pronounced Reagan..."Reegin" ha ha. I still wonder if that was intentional.
