Heard a humming Coming offshore, When we came together. Like a diesel engine, I could feel your presence.
Cost of living On a dragon's head; In the arms of a stranger. Oh, America, I could feel your presence.
Come on, baby, Do your legs still run down the borderline, In the dark of the night by the river rising? Come on, now. They built a railroad down in the underground That can take you anywhere you don't wanna be found.
Drums were beating As they changed the guard At the grand casino. In a Roman Empire, I could feel your presence.
Come on, baby, I saw your face light up like a motel sign And your heart still beating in the flickering lights. Come on, now. I've been trying to hold onto a feeling tonight As the sun sets west on a Michigan sky.
