Lookin' out a dirty old window
Down below the cars in the city go rushing by
I sit here alone and I wonder why
Friday night and everyone's movin'
I can feel the heat but it's soothing heading down
I search for the beat in this dirty town
Downtown
The young ones are goin'
Downtown
The young ones are growin'
We're the kids in America whoa
We're the kids in America whoa
Everybody live for the music go round
Bright lights the music gets faster
Look girl don't check on your watch not another glance
I'm not leavin' now honey no not a chance
Hot shot shot give me no problems
Much later baby you'll be saying never mind
You know life is cruel life is never kind
Kind hearts
We'll make a new story
Kind hearts
We'll grab it in glory
We're the kids in America whoa
We're the kids in America whoa
Everybody live for the music go round
La la la la la
La la la la la
Sing
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la
Come closer honey that's better
Got to get a brand new experience feeling right
Oh don't try to stop baby hold me tight
Outside a new day is dawning
Outside suburbia's sprawling everywhere
I don't want to go baby
New York
To East Philadelphia
There's a new one
Comin' I warn you
We're the kids in America
We're the kids in America
Everybody live for the music go round
La la la la la
La la la la la
Sing
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la
La la la
We're the kids
We're the kids
We're the kids in America
