Only in America

Only in America

Can a guy from anywhere

Go to sleep a pauper and wake up a millionaireOnly in America

Can a kid without a cent

Get a break and maybe grow up to be PresidentOnly in America

Land of opportunity, yeah

Would a classy girl like you fall for a poor boy like meOnly in America

Can a kid who's washin' cars

Take a giant step and reach right up and touch the starsOnly in America

Could a dream like this come true

Could a guy like me start with nothing and end up with youOnly in America

Land of opportunity, yeah

Would a classy girl like you fall for a poor boy like meOnly in America (poor boy like me)

Only in America (only in America)

Only in America (only in America)

Only in America (only in America)

Only in America (only in America)

Only in America
