I hopped off the plane at LAX with a dream and my cardigan. Welcome to the land of fame excess, am I gonna fit in?

Jumped in the cab, here I am for the first time. Look to the right and I see the Hollywood sign.. this is all so crazy, everybody seems so famous! My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda home sick, too much pressure and I'm nervous. That's when the taxi man turned on the radio and a Jay Z song was on. So I put my hands up, they’re playing my song, and 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 ok. Yeah, it's a party in the USA!

Get to the club in my taxi cab, everybody's lookin' at me now. Like “whos that chick, thats rockin’ kicks? She gotta be from out of town”. So hard with my girls not around me, it's definitely not a Nashville party, 'cause all I see are stilletos. I guess I never got the memo! My tummys turnin' and I'm feelin kinda home sick, too much pressure and I'm nervous. That's when the D.J. dropped my favorite tune, and a Britney song was on. So I put my hands up, they’re playing my song, and 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 ok. Yeah, it's a party in the USA!

Feel like hoppin' on a flight, back to my home town tonight. Something stops me everytime, the DJ plays my song and I feel alright!

I got my hands up, they’re playin' my song! I know I'm gonna be ok. Yeah, it's a party in the USA!
