Lyrics

[Verse 1] America America Got there hundred years ago When I was very young Father took me on this meet And told me: "yes, oh girl" Life is long, my life is good I don't, but you're not here We gotta make a plan And a plan we must believe We've got to take a better day And drive at night till dawn Try to see the future Take us where the team is on Sitting on your own now Turn and walk away I play mitar, I play guitar And this is all they play Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing When you're gonna love to see that my way [Chorus] When you're gonna see you've got to keep it moving When you're gonna start to make some headway When you do, you're gonna see the people grooving Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing [Verse 2] Rhythm up, the tune is fun Lead one to one call The time has spastic fingers Changing still the same old song Affection is machine But it's as slow as you can get Believe it all the day You say you have seen nothing yet Give and try to fit them Yet there's something left to prove Population moving People getting in the groove Make it better, life is now You're older right today Play it hard, don't play it long Turn 'round now by the way Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing Keep at grooving Keep at grooving Keep at grooving America America America... When you're gonna love to see that my way [Chorus] When you're gonna see you've got to keep it moving When you're gonna start to make some headway When you do, you're gonna see the people grooving Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing [Verse 3] Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing Dancing, all dancing America Dancing, all dancing...
