It's a long fast dance

Well the long fast dance of progress

And the long slow waltz of decay

Made such a natural born couple

They settled down right here in the USA

Dream home for two in the USA

Hot jazz,cool blues,we got country

We get rock and roll all day

Like to dance,come on down get funky

That's the way,that's the way

That's the way,hey hey,in the USA

There's still cowboys and indians (indians) at home on the range

But the cowboys and indians have changed - they've changed

Cowboys and indians have changed

We've got James Dean on the silver screen

We've got James Brown he won't let you down

Now Elvis was the king of rock and roll

We got preacher men who want to save your soul

Got the motorcity with the Motown beat

Get hip to the beat on the hip hop street

Stars and bars and the biggest cars

And a rocket ship take you up to Mars

There's the east coast trip where it's real uptight

Where you work all day and you play all night

And the west coast side with the laid back scene

When you just lay back and it seems like a dream

There's a lot of places in between

There's Hollywood and the city by the bay

And the whole damn south down Louisiana way

That's the way,that's the way,hey hey,in the USA

There's still cowboys and indians (indians) at home on the range

But the cowboys and indians have changed - they've changed

In the land of the free and the home of the brave

The cowboys and cowgirls and indians have changed

Baby baby baby

That's the way that's the way that's the way in the USA...

Cowboys and indians...

In the USA...
