Standard (EADGBE)
Verse
Looking out a dirty old window
Down below the cars in the city go rushing by
I sit here alone and I wonder why
Friday night and everyone's moving
I can fell the heat but it's shooting heading down
I search for the beat in this dirty town
Prechorus
Down town the young ones are going
Down town the young ones are growing
Chorus
We're the kids in America (x 2)
Everybody live for the music-go-round
--Second verse identical to first:--
Bright lights the music gets faster
Look boy, don't check on your watch
Not another glance
I'm not leaving now, honey not a chance
Hotshot, give me no problems
Much later baby you'll be saying never mind
You know life is cruel, life is never kind
Kind hearts don't make a new story
Kind hearts don't grab any glory
We're the kids in America (x 2)
Everybody live for the musicgoround
Na na ...
Na na ...
Come closer, honey that's better
Got to get a brand new experience
Feeling right
Oh don't try to stop baby
Hold me tight (slide)
Outside a new day is dawning
Outside Sububia's sprawling everywhere
I don't want to go baby
??????? to Southern California
There's a wave coming I warn you
Chorus
- + Na na na part
Bridge 3x

We're the kids(x3) in America
