Somewhere in America
Yearning deep for you
There's country on the radio
The key change comes on cue
The DJ's voice is honey
But I don't think it's true
I'm somewhere in America
Nowhere to be blue

Tonight's a different motel
That looks the very same
It's not what I imagined
On our diamond stairs to fame
There's twenty four hour marketing
But a broken telephone
I'm somewhere in America
Adrift, astray, alone

I'm somewhere in America
Yearning deep for you
There's country on the radio
The key change comes on cue

The towels are indescribable
I wonder should I sue?
I'm somewhere in America
Nowhere to be blue

Buddy Holly, Elvis-
God fearing, down home boys
Went to church on Sundays
But sang of different joys
Amorous three chord poems
Cleaned up for public view
They were somewhere in America
Which is nowhere to be blue

Somewhere in America
Yearning deep for you
I need to touch your heart
As the key change comes on cue
That DJ's voice is honey
But I don't think it's true
I'm somewhere in America
Nowhere to be blue

I'm somewhere in America
Yearning deep for you
With country on the radio
The key change comes on cue
The DJ's voice is honey
But I don't think it's true

I'm somewhere in America
Nowhere to be blue
Somewhere in America
Burning deep for you
Somewhere in America
Holding on to you
