When I first came to Manhattan
I was not surprised
The stories people had told me
Turned out to be no lies
All the different people
From all over the world they're living
A magic fills the air
There's music everywhere
I love America
I love America
I love America, America
When I first heard funky music
It just blew my mind
The funky music was so good
I'd play it all the time
All the funky rhythms
Going all through my mind and body
They make me have to move
You can't escape the groove
I love America
I love America
I love America, America
Everywhere funky music fills the air
You can go to the disco and you'll find it there
Funky music is music with so much to share
I love America, I love America
I love America
I love, I love, I love America
I love America
I love, I love, I love America
I love America
New York City, funky music
I love America
I love, I love, I love America
I love America
I love, I love, I love America
I love America
San Francisco, California
