Verse 1:
Well, the rock still rolls
The beat goes on
after all of this time
Faces change but the song's the same
And it feels so fine, play it one more time

CHORUS:
They want American music for movin' to the stereo
If it makes you feel all right
Well, you can lose your blues and dance all night
American music for driving with the radio
(driving with the radio)
Do what you like, be who you feel
If the music is right, well it almost feels real
American

Verse 2:
From the purple peaks to the city streets
They believe it's a wonderful thing
The power of the pounding beat
And the magic in our dreams

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Just when you think that you've heard enough
Somebody says turn it up
Turn it up
Turn it up

They want American music for movin' to the stereo
(dancing with my baby)
Do what you like, be who you feel
If the music is right, well, it almost feels real
American

Baby, baby won't you come out tonight
And take a chance on dancing in the moonlight
