american heartbeat

young restless in the heart land

undecided trying hard to understand

bold rebels faded glory mighty dollar

making their demands

and all the home town rallied

on every dream worth trying

and when we feel the lightning

and steal the thunder

never give in

the sleepless eyes keep on burning

and on the fire take on the heat

we multiply sweet home and hearted

change with the times

american heartbeat

american heartbeat

modern music making headlines

it sets the fashion

for everyone to see

in and out of troubled waters

smooth talkers promises we'll never keep

and all the home town rallied

on every dream worth trying

and when you feel the lightning

and steal your thunder

never give in

the sleepless eyes keep on burning

and on the fire take on the heat

we multiply sweet home and hearted

change with the times

american heartbeat

american heartbeat

yes it is

american heartbeat

and every generation

they feel a new sensation

all day long

where they find that hunger

keep on chasing thunder

never give in

the sleepless eyes keep on burning

and on the fire take on the heat

we won't be long sweet home and hearted

change with the times

american heartbeat

american heartbeat

it's an american heartbeat

yes it is

it's an american heartbeat
