Hold my hand Maria tight
As ever you can
We will become the morning light
Once again
The cold water's just a step away
We'll wash off all the dirt and
Glass today
I live in America
I live in America
And I will be proud and free
In America
On three Maria
Let's dance a little while
It's almost autumn
You can tell by the sky
White ribbon in your
Long brown hair
It's almost heaven
We can touch it from here
I live in America
I live in America
And I will be proud and free
In America
I ain't a number
Tell my girl that I love her
And Maria says the same
It sure is pretty
At the top of the city
That never knew my name
But I'll remain
In the roar and flame
With the finest and the brave
Hold my hand Maria tight
As ever you can
We will become the morning light
Once again
The cold water's just a step away
We'll wash off all the dirt and
Glass today
I live in America
I live in America
And I will be proud and free
In America
