[Verse 1]
Sun comin' up over New York City
School bus driver in a traffic jam
Starin' at the faces in her rearview mirror
Looking at the promise of the Promised Land

[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]

A welder's son and a banker's daughter
All they want is everything
She came out here to be an actress
He was the singer in a band
They just might go back to Oklahoma
And talk about the stars they could have been
[Chorus]
Only in America
Dreamin' in red, white, and blue
Only in America
Where we dream as big as we want to
And we all get a chance
Everybody gets to dance
Only in America
[Instrumental Break]

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)
America (Only in America)
