Lyrics

Yeah, uh! Ow! Knock it out this Woo Superhighways, coast to coast Easy to get 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, woo Living in America (ow!) Eye to eye, station to station Living in America Hand to hand, across the nation Living in America Got to have a celebration Rock my soul, huh Ow, huh 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, yeah On black coffee and a hard roll, woo You might have to walk a fine line (say it) You might take the hard line But everybody's workin' overtime Living in America (huh) Eye to eye, station to station, uh Living in America Hand to hand, across the nation Living in America Yeah, got to have a celebration, ow! I (I) live in America Say it loud That I (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, uh (Dallas), Pittsburgh, PA (Pittsburgh, PA) New York City (New York City), Kansas City (Kansas City) Atlanta, yeah (Atlanta), Chicago, and LA Living in America (yeah) Hit me Living in America Yeah, I walked in and out Living in America Yeah I live in America Right here Get my message? I live in America Say it Ah, ah Living in America Eddie Murphy, eat your heart out Living in America Living in America Yeah Hit me Yeah, I walked in and out Living in America Living in America Yeah I live in America Say it loud, yeah, it'll make you proud, ooh That I live in America Hey, I know what it means, uh Living in America (hit me) I said now, eye to eye, station to station, yeah Living in America I will scream, let me, yeah Living in America Ah, yes, sir Uh, now, ain't it funky? But it's good (living in America) Yeah, so nice with your bad self, uh Living in America Whoa, I feel good!
