Only In America

                                  Sun coming' up over New York City

School bus driver in a traffic jam

Staring out at the faces in a rear view mirror

Lookin' at the promise of the Promised Land



One kid dreams of fame and fortune

One kid helps pay the rent

One could end up going to prison

One just might be president



[Chorus]

Only in America

Dreamin' in red white and blue

Only in America

Where we dream as big as we want to



We all get a chance

Everybody gets to dance

Only in America



Sun goin' down on an LA freeway

Newly weds in the back of a limosine

A welder's son and a banker's daughter

All they want is every thing



She came out here to be an actress

He was a singer in a band

They might just go back to Oklahoma

And talk about the stars they could have been



[Chorus]



We all get a chance

Everybody gets to dance

Only in America



[Chorus]



We all get a chance

Everybody gets to dance

Only in America



Yeah Only in America



Only in America



Where we dream in red white and blue

Yeah we dream as big as we want to



Only in America
