Elizabeth Gillies - Make It In America

Got a one way ticket
Down a 2 way street
Got the wind in my hair
And there's dust on my feet
I'm just trying to make it in America

Only thing to my name
Is an old t-shirt
Faded 1985 from
A stones concert
And I'm dying to make it in America

And I'm singing the words
To my favorite song
With the rag top down
And my glasses on
And I'm driving straight through America

I wanna taste the sun
'Cause baby I'm born to run
I've got a feeling
That I'm not the only one

I, I wanna show some skin
Yeah, baby I need the ocean
And you can't stop me now
I've got my heart in motion
I wanna make it in America
Make it in America

I can see my star
Sunset and vine
Gonna carve my name
In the Hollywood sign
Yeah, I gotta,
Gotta make it in America See me wearing a smile
Even if I'm broke
I'll be singing the words
From a song I wrote
And I called it
Make it in America

I wanna taste the sun
'Cause baby I'm born to run
I've got a feeling
That I'm not the only one

I, I wanna show some skin
Yeah, baby I need the ocean
And you can't stop me now
I've got my heart in motion
I wanna make it in America
Make it in America

I can feel the sweat dripping down my face
I can hear my heart when it starts to race
Yeah, sometimes this world's a lonely place
If I just push on I know that

I wanna taste the sun
'Cause baby I'm born to run
I've got a feeling
That I'm not the only one

I, I wanna show some skin
Yeah, baby I need the ocean
And you can't stop me now
I've got my heart in motion
I wanna make it in America
Make it in America
