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
