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 town girl

In the parking lot

Shaking off her dress with everything she's got

Last night she started dancing and she couldn't stop

Daylight came and it broke her heart

She's been up all night

Dream so big

In a town where dreams don't fit

Come on now people it's all we've got

We feel it in our hearts for sure

Like a song that's been playing 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 never really gave enough

So she couldn't take no more

She said she couldn't stay oh-oh

She had to walk away

Cause 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

We feel it in our hearts for sure

Like a song that's been playing 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 been playing for all our lives

We know it's right

We heard it on the radio

Oh-oh

We know it's right

Cause we heard it on the radio

We know it's right

We heard it on the radio
