Living In America

Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, uh! Get up, now! Ow! Knock me out, yeah! [Verse 1] Wow! Super highways, coast-to-coast Easy to get anywhere On the transcontinental overload Just slide behind the wheel How does it feel? [Pre-Chorus] (When there's no destination) That's too far And somewhere on the way You might find out who you are Wow! [Chorus] (Living in America) Wow! Eye to eye, station to station (Living in America) Hand to hand, across the nation (Living in America) Got to have a celebration [Interlude] Rock my soul, huh Ah! Huh [Verse 2] 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, hey Hey, on black coffee and a hard roll, woo! [Pre-Chorus] (You might have to walk the fine line) Say it (You might take the hard line) But everybody's working overtime [Chorus] (Living in America) Huh, eye to eye, station to station (Living in America) Hand to hand, across the nation (Living in America) Yeahh! Got to have a celebration Yow! [Refrain] I (I live in America) help me out But I (I live in America) Wait a minute [Bridge] You might not be looking 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, huh (Dallas) Pittsburgh, P.A. (Pittsburgh, P.A.) New York City (New York City) Kansas City (Kansas City) Atlanta (Atlanta), Chicago and L.A [Chorus] (Living in America) Hit me (Living in America) Yeah, I walk in and out (Living in America) Yow! [Refrain] (I live in America) Right here, dig my mess (I live in America) Say it, I, I [Outro] (Living in America) Eddie Murphy, eat your heart out (Living in America) (Living in America) Yeah Hit me, yeah, hit me now (Living in America) (Living in America) Wow! I live in America Paying' the time makes the crime, ooh I live in America Hey, I know what it means (Living in America) Hit me I said now, eye to eye, station to station (Living in America) I'm gonna scream, let me, wow! (Living in America) Ahh, yes, sir Now ain't it funky? (Living in America) Wow! So nice with your bad self (Living in America) Wow, I feel good!
