Living In America

Get up!

Ow!

Knock you out, yeah

Superhighways, coast to coast

Easy takin' anywhere

On the transcontinental overload

Just slide behind the wheel, how does it feel

(When there's no destination) That's too far

And somewhere on the way you might find out who you are

(Living in America) Eye to eye, station to station

(Living in America) Hand in hand, across the nation

(Living in America) Got to have a celebration

Rock my soul!

Smokestack, fatback

Many miles of railroad track

All-night radio

Keep on runnin' through your rock'n'roll soul

All-night diners

Keep you awake

On a black coffee

And a hard roll

(You might have to walk a fine line

you might take a hard line)

But everybody's workin' overtime

(Living in America) Eye to eye, station to station

(Living in America) Hand in hand, across the nation

(Living in America) Yeah, got to have a celebration

I live in America

I live in America

Wait a minute

You may not be lookin' for the promised land

But you might find it anyway

Under one of those old familiar names

Like New Orleans (New Orleans)

Detroit City (Detroit City)

Dallas (Dallas)

Pittsburgh P. A. (Pittsburgh P. A)

New York City (New York City)

Kansas City (Kansas City)

Atlanta, yeah (Atlanta)

Chicago and L. A

(Living in America)

Hit me (Living in America)

(Living in America)

I live in America

Staying alive, we'll make the prime

I live in America, hey

I know what it means

I

(Living in America) Eddie Murphy, eat your heart out

Hit me

Hey!

(Living in America) Eye to eye, station to station

(Living in America) So nice, would you better stop?

(Living in America) I feel good!
