Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hollywood Boulevard
Countin' up all the stars, desperate for one of ours
Cherry kissed red Corvette
Drivin' out wild, Wild West
Settle for nothing less
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, you can have it anyway you want it
As long as you never sleep
Well, you can fake it till you make it, darlin'
With five bucks in your jeans
[Chorus]
Born in America
Red, white, and blue
I miss America
This is the place where all your dreams will come true
Born in America, land of the free
God bless America
Where you can be whatеver you wanna be
[Verse 2]
Raised in Virginia Bеach
Small town of Chesapeake
Slushies and pickup trucks, fireflies in the streets
Rockin' first generation
Straight out of Grand Central Station
Love is my inspiration
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, you can have it anyway you want it
As long as you never sleep, oh-yay
Well, you can fake it till you make it, darlin'
With five bucks in your jeans
[Chorus]
Born in America
Red, white, and blue
I miss America
This is the place where all your dreams will come true
Born in America, land of the free
God bless America
Where you can be whatеver you wanna be
