Lyrics

Driving down the street today,I saw a sign for lemonade
They were the cutest kids I'd ever seen in this front yard
As they handed me my glass smiling thinking to myself
Man what a picture perfect postcard this would make of America
It's a high school prom it's a Springsteen song
It's a ride in a Chevrolet
It's a man on the moon and fireflies in June
And kids selling lemonade
It's cities and farms it's open arms one nation under God
It's America
Later on when I got home I flipped the TV on
I saw a little town that some big twister tore apart
And people came from miles around just to help their neighbors out
And I was thinking to myself I'm so glad
That I live in America
It's a high school prom it's a Springsteen song
It's a ride in a Chevrolet
It's a man on the moon and fireflies in June
And kids selling lemonade
It's cities and farms it's open arms
One nation under God
It's America
Now we might not always get it all right
There's no place else I'd rather build my life
Cause it's a kid with a chance it's a rock roll band
It's a farmer cutting hay
It's a big flag flying in a summer wind
Over a fallen hero's grave
It's a high school prom it's a Springsteen song
It's a welcome home parade yeah
It's a man on the moon and fireflies in June
And kids selling lemonade
It's cities and farms it's open arms one nation under God
It's America It's America
