Make It In America

Got a one way ticket down a two way street,
Got the wind in my hair and theres dust on my feet,
Im just trying to make it in America,

Only thing to my name is an old t-shirt,
Faded 1985 from a Stones concert,
And Im dying to make it in America,

And Im singing the words to my favorite song,
With the rag top down and my glasses on,
And Im driving straight through America,

I wanna taste the sun!
Cause baby Im born to run!
I got a feeling that Im not the only one,

I, I wanna show some skin
'Cause baby I need the ocean,
And you cant stop me now Ive got my heart in motion,
I want to make it in America,
Make it in America!

I can see my star sunset and vine,
Gonna carve my name in the Hollywood sign,
Yeah I gotta, gotta make it in America,

See me wearin a smile, even if Im broke,
Ill be singing the words from a song I wrote,
And I called it Make It In America,

I wanna taste the sun!
Cause baby Im born to run!
I got a feeling that Im not the only one,

I, I wanna show some skin,
Baby I need the ocean,
And you cant stop me now Ive got my heart in motion,
I wanna make it in America,
(yeah)
Make it in America!

I can feel the sweat dripping down my face,
I can hear my heart as it starts to race,
Yeah sometimes this worlds such a lonely place,
If I just push on I know that,

I wanna taste the sun!
Cause baby Im born to run!
I got a feeling that Im not the only one,

I, I wanna show some skin,
Baby I need the ocean,
And you cant stop me now
Ive got my heart in motion,
I wanna make it in America!
(Make it in America)
Make it in America!
