Lyrics:
Santana:
Puerto Rico
My heart's devotion
Let it sink back in the ocean
Always the hurricanes blowing
Always the population growing
And the money owing
And the sunlight streaming
And the natives steaming
I like the island Manhattan
(Tina: I know you do)
Smoke on your pipe
And put that in!
Sharks Girls:
I like to be in America
Okay by me in America
Everything free in America
Puck:
For a small fee in America
Santana:
Buying on credit is so nice
Puck:
One look at us and they charge twice
Tina:
I have my own washing machine
Rory:
What will you have though to keep clean?
Santana:
Skyscrapers bloom in America
Tina:
Cadillacs zoom in America
Santana:
Industry boom in America
Sharks Boys:
Twelve in a room in America
Santana:
Lots of new housing with more space
Puck:
Lots of doors slamming in our face
Santana:
I'll get a terrace apartment
Puck:
Better get rid of your accent
Santana:
Life can be bright in America
Sharks Boys:
If you can fight in America
Sharks Girls:
Life is all right in America
Sharks Boys:
If you're all white in America
Sharks:
Lalala America
America
Lalala America
America
Sharks Girls:
Here you are free and you have pride
Mike and the Jets:
Long as you stay on your own side
Sharks Girls:
Free to be anything you choose
Mike and the Jets:
Free to wait tables and shine shoes
Sharks Girls:
I like to be in America
Okay by me in America
Everything free in America
Puck:
For a small fee in America
Sharks Girls:
I like to be in America
Okay by me in America
Everything free in America
Puck:
For a small fee in America
Puck and the Sharks:
Lalala America
Lalala America
Lalala America
Lalala America
