Outside in America
Everybody's just waking up
Drinking coffee from a paper cup
To the sound of the radio
And there's a broke down girl
In a parking lot
Shaking off her dress
With everything she's got
Last night she started dancing
Aand she couldn't stop
Daylight came and broke her heart

She's been up all night
With dreams so big
In a town where dreams don't fit

Come on now people
It's all we've got
I feel it in my head for sure
Like a song that's being played
For all our lives
We know it's right
We heard it on the radio

Outside in America
There's a boy and there's a girl he loves
But he really never gave enough
And so she couldn't take no more
She said she couldn't stay
She had to walk away
Cuz he's never gonna get it
Never gonna get it
And she's never gonna live that way

He says "oh my god"
"I feel like hell"

Come on now people
It's all we've got
I feel it in my head for sure
Like a song that's being played
For all our lives
We know it's right
We heard it on the radio

And it's all these moments that
Start all the fires that
Make all these moments burn bright
So how can't all this be right

Come on now people
It's all we've got
I feel it in my head for sure
Like a song that's being played
For all our lives
We know it's right
We heard it on the radio
