My heart's devotion
Let it sink back in the ocean
Always the hurricanes blowing
Always the population growing
And the money owing
And the sunlight streaming
And the natives steaming
I like the island Manhattan (I know you do)
Smoke on your pipe and put that in
I like to be in America
Okay by me in America
Everything free in America
For a small fee in America
Buying on credit is so nice
One look at us and they charge twice
I'll have my own washing machine
What will you have, though, to keep clean?

Cadillacs zoom in America
Industry boom in America
Twelve in a room in America
Lots of new housing with more space
Lots of doors slamming in our face

Better get rid of your accent
Life can be bright in America
If you can fight in America
Life is all right in America
If you're all-white in America
La, la, la, la, la, la
