Living In America – James Brown

“Living In America” Lyrics

Yeah!
Look out!
Ooow!
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 along the way
You might find out who you are
Wooo!
(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
Rock my soul
Smokestack
Fatback
Many miles of railroad track
All night radio
Keep on running those rock n’ roll shows
All night diners
Keep you awake
On black coffee
And a hard roll
(You might have to walk a fine line)
(You might take a hard life)
But everybody’s workin’ 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 (live in America)
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 City
Atlanta (Atlanta)
Chicago
And L.A.
(Living in America)
(Living in America)
(Living in America)
I (live in America)
I (live in America)
I
(Living in America)
(Living in America)
Eye-to-eye
Station-to-station
(Living in America)
So nice
With your bad self
(Living in America)
Whoooa…I feel good!
