IT'S BETTER IN THE U.S.A.Glenn Frey, Jack Tempchin Well, they look to the east, they look to the west The third world wonders, which way's the best We got freedom, we got soul We got blue jeans and Rock 'n' Roll Man there ain't no choice It's better in the U.S.A. (It's better in the U.S.A.) You can be what you want Say what you wanna say (It's better in the U.S.A.) How can I make you understand It's better in the U.S.A. (It's better in the U.S.A.) I hear the same propaganda, day after day It's gettin' so hip, to knock the U.S.A If we're so awful, and we're so bad You oughta check the nightlife in Leningrad Man it ain't even close It's better in the U.S.A. (It's better in the U.S.A.) If you could see behind the curtain Life is cold and grey (It's better in the U.S.A.) How can I make you understand It's better in the U.S.A. (It's better, it's better) Nobody's perfect and change comes slow It's really up to you which way you wanna go You can move to the left or move to the right You can stand in the dark, you can stand in the light Drivin' on the beach on a night in June Me and me baby and the lover's moon We're playin' sweet soul music, got it turned up loud Makes me feel so good, makes me feel so proud Man there ain't no choice It's better in the U.S.A. (It's better in the U.S.A.) They'd be movin' here from Moscow If they could only find a way (It's better in the U.S.A.) How can I make you understand It's better in the U.S.A. (It's better) We got burgers and fries (In the U.S.A.) We got the friendly skies (In the U.S.A.) We got the beautiful girls (In the U.S.A.) They got the beautiful curls (In the U.S.A.) We're diggin' movie stars (In the U.S.A.) We get to make romance (In the U.S.A.) We let the little girls dance (In the U.S.A.) It's better baby. Nice sweater, baby . . . What'd you say, you and me go for a little drive? Come on . . . |
