Sun coming' up over new york city
school bus driver in a traffic jam
staring out at the faces in a rear view mirror
lookin' at the promise of the promised land
One kid dreams of fame and fortune
one kid helps pay the rent
one could end up going to prison
one just might be president
Only in america
dreamin' in red white and blue
only in america
where we dream as big as we want to
We all get a chance
everybody gets to dance
only in america
Sun goin' down on an la freeway
newly weds in the back of a limosine
a welder's son and a banker's daughter
all they want is every thing
She came out here to be an actress
he was a singer in a band
they might just go back to oklahoma
and talk about the stars they could have been
Only in america
dreamin' in red white and blue
only in america
where we dream as big as we want to
We all get a chance
everybody gets to dance
only in america
Only in america
where we dream in red white and blue
only in america
where we dream as big as we want to
We all get a chance
everybody gets to dance
only in america
Yeah only in america
Only in america
Where we dream in red white and blue
yeah we dream as big as we want to
Only in america
