They come from the cities And they come from the smaller towns Beat up cars with guitars and drummers Goin crack boom bam CHORUS: R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A., Yeah, Yeah! Rockin' in the U.S.A. Said goodbye to their families Said goodbye to their friends With pipe dreams in their heads And very little money in their hands Some are black and some are white Ain't to proud to sleep on the floor tonight With the blind faith of Jesus you know that they just might, be Rockin' in the U.S.A. Hey! Voices from nowhere And voices from the larger towns Filled our head full of dreams Turned the world upside down There was Frankie Lyman-Bobby Fuller-Mitch Ryder (They were Rockin') Jackie Wilson-Shangra-las-Young Rascals (They were Rockin') Spotlight on Martha Reeves Let's don't forget James Brown Rockin' in the U.S.A.

Eles vêm das cidades grandes E eles vêm das cidades menores Carros velhos com guitarras e bateristas Fazendo crack-boom-bam REFRÃO: R.O.C.K. nos E.U.A. R.O.C.K. nos E.U.A. R.O.C.K. nos E.U.A., yeah, yeah! Tocando rock nos E.U.A. Disseram adeus a suas famílias Disseram adeus a seus amigos Com sonhos impossíveis na cabeça E muito pouco dinheiro nas mãos Uns são negros e outros são brancos Não têm vergonha de dormir no chão Com a fé cega em Jesus, você sabe que eles só poderiam estar Tocando rock nos E.U.A. Hey! Vozes vindas do nada E as vozes das cidades maiores Enchiam nossas cabeças de sonhos E viraram o mundo do avesso Havia Frankie Lyman, Bobby Fuller, Mitch Ryder (Eles eram demais) Jackie Wilson, Shangri-Las, Young Rascals (Eles eram demais) Holofotes em Martha Reeves E não vamos esquecer de James Brown Tocando rock nos E.U.A. Tocando rock nos E.U.A. Hey! REFRÃO: R.O.C.K. nos E.U.A. R.O.C.K. nos E.U.A. R.O.C.K. nos E.U.A., yeah, yeah! Tocando rock nos E.U.A.
