[Verse 1]
I hopped off the plane at LAX
With my tea and my cardigan
Welcome to the land of fame and sex (Whoa)
Am I gonna fit in?
I jumped in the cab and the driver's on the left side
Look to my right and I see the Hollywood sign
Oh my days, there's Macy's
Everybody seems so crazy

[Pre-Chorus]
My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda homesick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous
That's when the taxi man turned on the radio
And the Jay-Z song was on
And the Jay-Z song was on
And the Jay-Z song was on

[Chorus]
So I put my hands up
They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away
Noddin' my head like, yeah
Movin' my hips like, yeah
I got my hands up, they're playin' my song
I know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah, I think I'm gonna like the U.S.A
Yeah, I think I'm gonna like the U.S.A
[Verse 2]
Get to the club in my taxi cab
Everybody's lookin' at me now
Like, "Who's that chick that's rockin' kicks?
She gotta be from out of town"
So hard with my girls not around me
It's definitely not a Essex party
'Cause all I see are stilettos
I guess I never got the memo

[Chorus]
So I put my hands up
They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away
Noddin' my head like, yeah
Movin' my hips like, yeah
I got my hands up, they're playin' my song
I know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah, I think I'm gonna like the U.S.A
Yeah, I think I'm gonna like the U.S.A

[Bridge]
Feel like hopping on a flight (On a flight)
Back to my hometown tonight (Town tonight)
Something stops me every time (Every time)
The DJ plays my song and I feel alright
[Chorus]
So I put my hands up
They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away
Noddin' my head like, yeah
Movin' my hips like, yeah
I got my hands up, they're playin' my song
I know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah, I think I'm gonna like the U.S.A
Yeah, I think I'm gonna like the U.S.A
So I put my hands up
They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away
Noddin' my head like, yeah
Movin' my hips like, yeah
I got my hands up, they're playin' my song
I know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah, I think I'm gonna like the U.S.A
Yeah, I think I'm gonna like the U.S.A
