America

And I hope that you find it, all that you need

I hope that you stay young and wild and free

You’ll have America

And I hope that you’re better than all of your friends

I hope that they hold you until the end

You can have America

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm

But all of our time chasing America

Though she never had a home for me

All of our time chasing a dream

Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm

A dream that meant nothing to me

And see where I found you, where they all lay

All of the greats, they are here to stay

Here in America

And I hope that you’re finding, all that you are

I hope that it sets you up high, oh-oh, oh-oh

In the heart of America

Hmm, hmm

But all of our time chasing America

But she never had a home for me

All of our time chasing a dream

Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm

A dream that meant nothing to me

And all the parties they fade

And yes my looks they’ll go away

I’ll just be left here in America

But she never had a home for me
