Livin' In America Lyrics - Summer Donna

Straight outta school but still just 

a fool 

thought the streets were paved 

with gold 

he moved oof the block and 

found he was lost 

in a world he'd never known 

he had to hustle so he could pay 

the rent 

played all the aces and wound up 

president 

you see it's okay 

got to find your own way 

keep on trying all day 

and you know your time 

will come 

you'll get your chance to run 

Chorus: 

You're livin' in America 

you're livin' in the home of 

the dream 

you're livin' in America 

just make it what you want it 

to be 

Soap opera child with hope in 

her eyes 

lookin' for a starrin' role 

she came into town and acted 

the clown 

had a long, long way to go 

waitin' on tables and pumpin' 

gasoline 

she served an agent, now she's 

a movie queen 

you see it's okay 

got to find your own way 

keep on tryin' all day 

and you know the time will come 

for each of everyone 

Chorus: 

You'll stand alone on a long 

hard road 

with a crowd that you can't see 

just start by steppin' out 

then let your mind run free 

Chorus: 

It's okay 

you're livin' in the USA 

find your dream 

you know that dream can set 

you free 

It's okay 

we're part of a United State 

you and me 

can be just what we wanna be 

he's okay 

he left the block and reached 

the top 

she's all right 

the agent put her name in lights 

He's okay 

he's paid his rent he's president 

she's all right 

she's on your TV screen tonight
