America
Santana (Anita):
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 (Rosalia):
I know you do
Santana (Anita):
Smoke on your pipe
And put that in!
Girls:
I like to be in America
Okay by me in America
Everything free in America

For a small fee in America
Santana:
Buying on credit is so nice
Puck:
One look at us and they charge twice

Tina:
Skyscrapers bloom in America
Cadillacs zoom in America
Industry boom in America
Boys:
Twelve in a room in America
Santana:
Lots of new housing with more space

Lots of doors slamming in our face
