Party in the USA Lyrics

[Verse 1: Surf Team]
I hopped off the plane at LAX
With a dream and my cardigan
Welcome to the land of fame excess, yeah
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

[Pre-Chorus: Surf Team]
My tummy's turning and I'm feeling 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

[Chorus: Surf Team]
So I put my hands up
They're playing my song, the butterflies fly away (Yeah)
I'm nodding my head like, yeah
Movin' my hips like, yeah
Got my hands up, they're playing my song
They know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A
Yeah, ooh-whoa-oh-oh-oh
It's a party in the U.S.A
[Verse 2: Surf Team]
Get to the club in my taxi cab
Everybody's looking at me now
Like, "Who's that chick that's rocking kicks?
She gotta be from out of town"
So hard with my girls not around me (Mhm)
It's definitely not a Nashville party (No way)
'Cause all I see are stilettos
I guess I never got the memo (Yeah)

[Pre-Chorus: Surf Team]
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

[Chorus: Surf Team]
So I put my hands up
They're playing my song, the butterflies fly away
I'm nodding my head like, yeah
Moving my hips like, yeah
Got my hands up, they're playing my song
They know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A
Yeah, ooh-whoa-oh-oh-oh
It's a party in the U.S.A
[Bridge: Surf Team]
Feel like hopping on a flight
Back to my hometown tonight
Something stops me every time
The DJ plays my song and I feel alright

[Chorus: Surf Team]
So I put my hands up
They're playing my song, the butterflies fly away
I'm nodding my head like, yeah (Yeah)
Moving my hips like, yeah
So I put my hands up, they're playing my song
They know I'm gonna be okay
Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A
Yeah, ooh-whoa-oh-oh-oh
It's a party in the U.S.A

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
