Livin' In America
Go Back to Heat Siphon

Lyrics to Livin' In America 1986 hit by James Brown (PLAY IT!!)

Superhighways, coast to coast, easy takin' 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 in hand, across the nation 
Living in America 

I 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 on a black coffee and a hard roll 

You might have to walk a fine line,
said you might take a hard line 
But everybody's workin' overtime 
Living in America 

Eye to eye, station to station 
Living in America 
Hand in hand, across the nation 
Living in America 
I got to have a celebration 
I live in America 

Said, I live in America 
Wait a minute 
You may not be lookin' for the promised land 
But you might find it anyway 
Under one of those old familiar names like 
New Orleans, Detroit City, Dallas , Pittsburgh P.A,
New York City, Kansas, Atlanta, Chicago and L. A. 
Living in America 
Hit me 
Living in America 
Living in America . . .
