Only in America - The Drifters

Only in America can a guy from anywhere

Go to sleep a pauper and wake up a millionaire

Only in America can a kid without a cent

Get a break and maybe grow up to be President

Only in America, land of opportunity, yeah

Would a classy girl like you fall for a poor boy like me?

Only in America can a kid who’s washin' cars

Take a giant step and reach right up and touch the stars

Only in America could a dream like this come true

Could a guy like me start with nothing and end up with you?

Only in America, land of opportunity, yeah, yeah

Would a classy girl like you fall for a poor boy like me?

A poor boy like me

Only in America, only in America

Only in America, only in America
