Bilingual
Got a one way ticket down a 2 way street
Got the wind in my hair and there's dust on my feet
I'm just trying to make it in America
Only thing to my name is an old t-shirt
Faded 1985 from a Stones' concert
And I'm dying to make it in America
And I'm singing the words to my favorite song
And I'm driving straight through America
I wanna taste the sun
Cause baby I'm born to run
I got a feeling that I'm not the only one
I, I wanna show some skin
Yeah baby I need the ocean
And you can't stop me now I've got my heart in motion
I want to make it in America
I can see my star sunset and vine
Gonna carve my name in the Hollywood sign
Yeah I gotta, gotta make it in America
See me wearin' a smile, even if I'm broke
I'll be singing the words from a song I wrote
And I called it Make It In America
I wanna taste the sun
Cause baby I'm born to run
I got a feeling that I'm not the only one
I, I wanna show some skin
Baby I need the ocean
And you can't stop me now I've got my heart in motion
I wanna make it in America
I can feel the sweat dripping down my face
I can hear my heart as it starts to race
Yeah sometimes this world's such a lonely place
If I just push on I know that
I wanna taste the sun
Cause baby I'm born to run
I got a feeling that I'm not the only one
I, I wanna show some skin
Baby I need the ocean
And you can't stop me now I've got my heart in motion
I wanna make it in America
