Living in America (instrumental) Songtext
von James Brown

Ow

Knock me out, yeah

Woah, 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, woah

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


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 (I) live in America
Help me out
But I (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)
Pittsburg P.A. (Pittsburg P.A.)
New York City (New York City)
Kansas (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

Living in America
Hit me, I said now, eye to eye
Station to station
Living in America
So nice, with your bare self
Living in America
Whoa
I feel good
