What? Well,
let me roll up on to the sidewalk
and take a look, yes
Whoa! She’s beautiful!
I’m talking about a Yankee Rose
Ha ha ha ha ha
And she looks wild, wild, wild, wild!
Are you ready for the new sensation?
Well, here’s the shot heard
‘round the world
All you back room boys salute
when her flag unfurls
Well, guess
who’s back in circulation
Now, I don’t know
what you may have heard
But what I need
right now’s the original good time girl
She’s a vision from coast to coast
(coast to coast)
Sea to shining sea
(sea to shining sea)
Hey sister, you’re the perfect host
(care to toast)
Show me your bright lights
And your city lights, all right
I’m talkin’ ‘bout the Yankee Rose, yeah
Your bright lights
And your city lights, all right
I’m talkin’ ‘bout it
When she walks,
watch, the sparks will fly
Firecrackin’ on the fourth of July
No sad songs tonight,
somethin’s in the air
Yeah, the feeling getcha, wow
A real state of independence
So pretty when her rockets glare
Still prove it any night
that her flag’s still there
She’s a vision from coast to coast
(coast to coast)
Sea to shining sea
(sea to shining sea)
Hey sister, you’re the perfect host
(make a toast)
Show me your bright lights
and your City lights, all right
I’m talkin’ ‘bout the Yankee Rose,
yeah
Bright lights in your City lights,
all right
I’m in love with the Yankee Rose
Ah, she’s beautiful, alright

whole world Yeah

Pick up the phone No time to waste
She got the beat And here’s
a little bit comin’ your way, wow
Aah, raise ‘em up there,

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Little bit, little bit, little bit higher

Bright lights, city lights
Bright lights, city lights
Bright lights, city lights
