Party In The USA

(album: The Time Of Our Lives - 2009)

I hopped off the plane at L.A.X.
With a dream and my cardigan
Welcome to the land of fame excess (whoa)
Am I gonna fit in?

Jumped in the cab
Here I am for the first time
Look to my right and I see the Hollywood sign
This is all so crazy
Everybody seems so famous

My tummy's turning
And I'm feeling kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous
That's when the taxi man turned on the radio
And a Jay-Z song was on
And a Jay-Z song was on
And a Jay-Z song was on

So I put my hands up
They're playing my song
The butterflies fly away
I'm nodding my head like yeah
Moving my hips like yeah
I got my hands up
They're playing my song
I know I'm gonna be OK
Yeah, it's a party in the USA
Yeah, it's a party in the USA

Get to the club in my taxi cab
Everybody's looking at me now
Like, "Who's that chick that's rocking kicks?
She gotta be from out of town"

So hard with my girls not around me
It's definitely not a Nashville party
'Cause all I see are stilettos
I guess I never got the memo

My tummy's turning
And I'm feeling kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous
That's when the DJ dropped my favorite tune
And a Britney song was on
And a Britney song was on
And a Britney song was on

So I put my hands up
They're playing my song,
The butterflies fly away
I'm nodding my head like yeah
Moving my hips like yeah
I got my hands up
They're playing my song
I know I'm gonna be OK
Yeah, it's a party in the USA
Yeah, it's a party in the USA

Feel like hopping on a flight (on a flight)
Back to my hometown tonight (town tonight)
Something stops me every time (every time)
The DJ plays my song and I feel alright (yeah)

So I put my hands up
They're playing my song
The butterflies fly away
I'm nodding my head like yeah
Moving my hips like yeah
I got my hands up
They're playing my song
I know I'm gonna be OK
Yeah, it's a party in the USA
Yeah, it's a party in the USA

So I put my hands up
They're playing my song
The butterflies fly away
I'm nodding my head like yeah
Moving my hips like yeah
I got my hands up
They're playing my song
I know I'm gonna be OK
Yeah, it's a party in the USA
Yeah, it's a party in the USA
