Living In America - James Brown

Yeah, uh! Get up, now!

Ow! Knock out this!

Super highways, 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

Living in America

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

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

On black coffee and a hard roll

You might have to walk the fine line

You might take the hard line

But everybody's working overtime

Living in America

Eye to eye, station to station

Living in America

Hand to hand, across the nation

Living in America

Got to have a celebration

I live in America, help me out

But I live in America

Wait a minute

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 (Dallas)

Pittsburgh P.A. (Pittsburgh P.A.)

New York City (New York City)

Kansas City (Kansas City)

Atlanta (Atlanta)

Chicago and L.A.

Living in America - hit me

Living in America - yeah

I walk in and out

Living in America

I live in America - state lines

Gonna make the prime, that

I live in America - hey

I know what it means, I

Living in America

Eddie Murphy, eat your heart out

Living in America

Hit me, I said now

Eye to eye, Station to station

Living in America

So nice, with your bad self

Living in America - I feel good!
