I was the eyes of the nation, their man on the ground
In the heat of the action, wherever it was found
Living on the frontline, bringing home the news
With God on our side we could never ever lose

Looking for america
Looking for america

Hitched a ride with a sweet sixteen
Prettiest thing I have ever seen
Set up in the back seat and whispered my goodbyes
Then she lit up and took me to the skies

Looking for america
Looking for america

Stars they were shining like diamonds in the night
When the lights of new york city rose on my right
And the eastern seaboard simmered in the heat
I shed a tear and started rocking rocking rocking rocking rocking to the beat

Looking for america
Looking for america

Looking for america
Looking for america

America
