American Heartbeat

Young restless, in the heart land
Undecided, trying hard to understand
Bold rebels, faded glory, almighty dollar
Makin' their demands

And all our hopes are ridin'
On every dream worth tryin'
And when we feel the lightning
And steal the thunder
Oh oh, never give in

The same desires, keep 'em burnin'
And as the fire, take on the heat
We walk through life, between love and heartache
Change with the times
American heartbeat
American heartbeat, yes it is

Modern music, making headlines
It sets the fashion
For everyone to see
In and out of troubled waters
Smooth talkers, promises they'll never keep

And all our hopes are ridin'
On every dream worth tryin'
And when you feel the lightning
And steal your thunder
Oh oh, never give in

The same desires, keep 'em burnin'
And as the fire, take on the heat
We walk through life, between love and heartache
Change with the times
American heartbeat
American heartbeat
Yes it is
American heartbeat, oh yeh

And every generation
I feel a new sensation
All day long
With that fire down under
Keep on chasing thunder
Oh oh, never give in, oh-oh

The same desires, keep 'em burnin'
Into the fire, take on the heat
We walk through life, between love and heartache
Change with the times
American heartbeat
American heartbeat

It's an American heartbeat, oh yeah
Yes it is
It's an American heartbeat, oh yeah, alright
American heartbeat
Oh yeh, yes it is
This is American heartbeat, oh
