Sing a song of America
Once she was a young girl with her heart on fire
Born in the dust of the magic of history

It all goes on yeah the dream goes on

Streets of gold

Streets of wonder
Streets of people growing stronger
Revolution and voices of thunder

It's a new world, new people
New dreams for all of the children
Young country, new love

New dreams of freedom

And it all goes on

Yes it all goes on
And it all goes on
In America

In America

In the streets of America

Back in the summer of '85
I met a young girl, her heart was in flames
Jenny bowen was her name

She was a california girl
War had changed her whole world
Her daddy died in vietnam

She lost her husband in lebanon
She was drivin' back to washington
To get a medal for the job they'd done

From the president of the united $#&@in' states of America

And she saw hungry people in the streets

Young mothers who could not eat
Oh i remember American dreams
We've all talked of American dreams


And it all goes on
Yes the dreams go on

And it all goes on
In America
In America

In America
In America


Something's happening in America
Can you feel it? can you feel it comin'?
It's like the green party in germany

Young people with visions and dreams
In nicaragua n' chile, poland and south africa
Freedom brewing, it's an uphill dream


Don't be afraid of anything
Don't be afraid of anyone


Young men are dreaming and
Young girls believing

And asking questions like

Where are the frontiers?

How do i get there?
There are no maps, there are no roads
Just you and me on these streets of gold


And it all goes on
Yes it all goes on

And it all goes on
And on and on and on and on and on
And on and on and on

Streets of America
Streets of America . . .go on
