Song lyrics
Sun comin' up over New York City
School bus driver in a traffic jam
Starin' at the faces in her rear view mirror
Lookin' at the promise of the promised land.

One kid dreams of fame and fortune
One kid helps pay the rent
One could end up goin' to prison
One just might be president.

Only in america
Dreamin' in red, white, and blue
Only in america
Where we dream as big as we want to.
We all get a chance
Everybody gets to dance
Only in america.

Sun goin' down on an L.A. freeway
Newlyweds in the back of a limousine
A welder's son and a banker's daughter
All they want is everything.

She came out here to be an actress
He was the singer in a band
They just might go back to Oklahoma
And talk about the stars they could have been.

Only in america
Dreamin' in red, white, and blue
Only in america
Where we dream as big as we want to.
We all get a chance
Everybody gets to dance
Only in america.

Yeah, we all get a chance
Everybody gets to dance
Only in america
Yeah, in america!...

The song might seem too "schmaltzy" for some but, even with her faults, this song IS about America! If you dream it and you work hard enough for it, you can do what you want to do! No, you may not always make it, but you'll be better for the trying and that's a damned sight better than lots of people in other parts of this world have the opportunity to do! So, dream in "red, white and blue" and ignore those who tell you you "can't" or you "shouldn't." Let them wallow in their self-pity. THAT is what this song is a testament to and I love Brooks & Dunn for singing it!
