I hopped off the plane at LAX with a dream and my cardigan
Welcome to the land of fame excess, whoa am i gonna fit in ?
Jumped in the cab, here I am for the first time
Look to my 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 homesick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous
That's when the taxi man turned on the radio
And a Jay-Z song was on
And a Jay-Z song was on
And a Jay-Z song was on

So I put my hands up, they're playin' my song
'The butterflies fly away', I'm noddin' my head like “Yeah!”
Movin' my hips like “Yeah!”
Got my hands up, they're playin' my song
And know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!

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 Nashville party, 'cause all I see are stilettos
I guess I never got the memo

My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda homesick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous
That's when the DJ dropped my favorite tune
And a Britney song was on
And a Britney song was on
And a Britney song was on

So I put my hands up, they're playin' my song
'The butterflies fly away',I'm noddin' my head like “Yeah!”
Movin' my hips like “Yeah!”
Got my hands up, they're playin' my song
And know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!

Feel like hoppin' on a flight (on a flight)
Back to my hometown tonight (town tonight)
Something stops me everytime (everytime)
The DJ plays my song and I feel alright

So I put my hands up, they're playin' my song
'The butterflies fly away', I'm noddin' my head like “Yeah!”
Movin' my hips like “Yeah!”
Got my hands up, they're playin' my song
And know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!

So I put my hands up, they're playin' my song
'The butterflies fly away',I'm noddin' my head like “Yeah!”
Movin' my hips like “Yeah!”
I put my hands up, they're playin' my song
And know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
