Patrick Juvet - I love america - original version lyrics

When I first came to Manhattan I was not surprised The stories people had told me Turned out to ea no lies All the different people From all over the world they're living A magic fills the air There's music everywhere I love America I love America I love America When I first heard funky music It just blew my mind The funky music was so good I'd play it all the time All the funky rhythms Going all through my mind and body They make me have to move You can't escape the groove I love America I love America I love America Everywhere funky music fills the air You can go to the disco And you'll find it there Funky music is music With so much to share I love America I love America I, I love the funky music I, I love the funky music I, I love the funky music Funky, the funky, the funky music Funky, the funky, the funky music Funky, the funky, the funky music I love America I love America I love America When I first learned how to latin I had so much fun The salsa sound was so different Than any sound around The demanding music From the people of Puerto Rico I love to watch them play Their music is so great I love America I love America I love America If you go out any night of the week You can hear salsa music The strong latin beat Sets the mood of people Who dance fast on their feet I love America I love America La, la, la, la - salsa music La, la, la, la - salsa music La, la, la, la - salsa music I love America I love America I love America Then I went down in the country Down in old Nashville The people there were so friendly I have good memories still Of the wonderful times That I spent in Nashville just dancing To country-western sounds The language they all found I love America I love America I love America Country-western music is full of life When you hear the guitars strumming Both day and night Rock and roll is the soul Of America's pride I love America I love America Rock and roll America, rock and roll What I say What I say What I say I love America Then, I went to California To a life of ease The people there are so mellow I never like to leave And the music they play Is so funky, but oh so mellow Without that East Coast drive The music is alive I love America I love America I love America Music is something they play every day Bands on their West Coast Get down with sounds of LA And the music in 'Frisco Makes me have to say I love America I love America I love, I love, I love America Music, funky music Salsa music, so demanding Nashville, rock and roll, yeah Hollywood, it's so good
