Livin In America - Lyrics by Summer Donna


Lyrics
Straight outta school but still justa foolthought the streets were pavedwith goldhe moved oof the block andfound he was lostin a world he'd never knownhe had to hustle so he could paythe rentplayed all the aces and wound uppresidentyou see it's okaygot to find your own waykeep on trying all dayand you know your timewill comeyou'll get your chance to run
Chorus:
You're livin' in Americayou're livin' in the home ofthe dreamyou're livin' in Americajust make it what you want itto be
Soap opera child with hope inher eyeslookin' for a starrin' roleshe came into town and actedthe clownhad a long, long way to gowaitin' on tables and pumpin'gasolineshe served an agent, now she'sa movie queenyou see it's okaygot to find your own waykeep on tryin' all dayand you know the time will comefor each of everyone
Chorus:
You'll stand alone on a longhard roadwith a crowd that you can't seejust start by steppin' outthen let your mind run free
Chorus:
It's okayyou're livin' in the US
Afind your dreamyou know that dream can setyou free
It's okaywe're part of a United Stateyou and mecan be just what we wanna behe's okayhe left the block and reachedthe topshe's all rightthe agent put her name in lights
He's okayhe's paid his rent he's presidentshe's all rightshe's on your TV screen tonight
