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 the right and I see the Hollywood sign
This is all so crazy
Everybody seems so famous

My tummy&9s turnin&9 and I&9m feelin&9 kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I&9m nervous,
That&9s 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

CHORUS:
So I put my hands up
They’re playing my song,
And the butterflies fly away
Noddin’ my head like yea
Movin&9 my hips like yea
I got my hands up,
They’re playin my song
I know I&9m gonna be ok
Yea, It&9s a party in the USA
Yea, It&9s a party in the USA

Get to the club in my taxi cab
Everybody&9s lookin&9 at me now
Like “who&9s that chick that&9s rockin’ kicks?
She gotta be from out of town”

So hard with my girls not around me
Its definitely not a Nashville party
&9Cause all I see are stilettos
I guess I never got the memo

My tummy&9s turnin&9 and I&9m feelin kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I&9m nervous
That&9s when the D.J. dropped my favorite tune
and a Britney song was on
and a Britney song was on
and a Britney song was on

CHORUS:
So I put my hands up
They’re playing my song,
And the butterflys fly away
Noddin’ my head like yea
Movin my hips like yea
I got my hands up,
They’re playin my song
I know im gonna be ok
Yea, It&9s a party in the USA
Yea, It&9s a party in the USA

Feel like hoppin&9 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 playing my song,
And the butterflies fly away
Noddin’ my head like yea
Movin&9 my hips like yea
I got my hands up,
They’re playin&9 my song
I know I&9m gonna be ok
Yea, It&9s a party in the USA
Yea, It&9s a party in the USA

So I put my hands up
They’re playing my song,
And the butterflies fly away
Noddin’ my head like yea
Movin&9 my hips like yea
I got my hands up,
They’re playin&9 my song
I know I&9m gonna be ok
Yea, It&9s a party in the USA
Yea, It&9s a party in the USA
