I Come From America Lyrics

CHORUS:
I may speak like I'm from Korea
I may look like I'm from Africa
I may have an Italian accent
But I come from America

VERSE1:
I left my heart in San Francisco
I also went to Tampa Bay
I lost my money in Las Vegas
And laid in the sun all day

BRIDGE:
America is the place I love
The home of the free and brave
So hurry up and climb aboard
Get on the boat and wave goodbye forever

VERSE2:
I did the hula in Hawaii
I went swimming in Peoria
Although I may have been to Spain and Portugal
I come from America

CHORUS

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
