I´m a rock and roll vagabond I´m a streetwise runaway Sixteen when I left home And I don´t regret it a single day I´m a sucker for a loud guitar
Got one tatooed on my chest It´s hot July My mouth´s too dry
You know I´ll be screamin Hard rock summer Hard rock summer
... ... Hard rock summer in the USA
Hard rock summer in the USA
Got a job It was so damn hard Just workin´ for the man All year long I saved my pay
And I stashed it in a rusty can ... And blew my head Then he blew me out of town I parked my van at the L.A. sand California screamin´ Hard rock summer Hard rock summer
Rock all night Gonna blow this town Til morning light Going round and round Hard rock summer in the USA
