    Lyrics:
    Yeah, uh!
    Get up, now!
    Ow!
    Knock out this!
    Super highways, coast to coast
    Easy to get anywhere
    On the transcontinental overload
    Just slide behind the wheel
    How does it feel
    When there's no destination - that's too far
    And somewhere on the way
    You might find out who you are
    Living in America - eye to eye, station to station
    Living in America - hand to hand, across the nation
    Living in America - got to have a celebration
    Rock my soul
    Smokestack, fatback
    Many miles of railroad track
    All night radio, keep on runnin'
    Through your rock 'n' roll soul
    All night diners keep you awake
    Hey, on black coffee and a hard roll
    You might have to walk the fine line
    You might take the hard line
    But everybody's working overtime
    Living in America
    Eye to eye, station to station
    Living in America
    Hand to hand, across the nation
    Living in America
    Got to have a celebration
    I live in America, help me out
    But I live in America
    Wait a minute
    You might not be looking for the promised land
    But you might find it anyway
    Under one of those old familiar names
    Like New Orleans (New Orleans)
    Detroit City (Detroit City), Dallas (Dallas)
    Pittsburg P.A. (Pittsburg P.A.)
    New York City (New York City)
    Kansas City (Kansas City)
    Atlanta (Atlanta), Chicago and L.A
    Living in America
    Ht me
    Living in America
    Yeah
    I walk in and out
    Living in America
    I live in America
    State lines
    Gonna make the prime that
    I live in America
    Hey
    I know what it means, I
    Living in America
    Eddie Murphy, eat your heart out
    Living in America
    Hit me, I said now, eye to eye
    Station to station
    Living in America
    So nice, with your bare self
    Living in America
    I feel good!

    Fun fact: Dolph Lundgren, the guy playing Drago, said his look of awe in this scene was his genuine reaction. He hadn't seen the set before filming so the first time he saw it was when they filmed this scene. He said he was blown away by everything he saw.

But when Rocky “the Italian Stallion” Balboa gets to fight Apollo “The Master of Disaster,” “The King of Sting,” “The Dancing Destroyer,” “The Prince of Punch,” “The Count of Monte Fisto” LOOK familiar? You know I could never figure out how to get likes? It's rather simple isn't it? Cheat (copy and paste) or be fake and sometimes both. All these ....... that like your OBVIOUS c & p

I now OWN that radio station - THAT is BLACK POWER!" What a great response...

      ​@@jarnold3415 It's an apt metaphor for America thinking they're star-spangled awesome at everything until moments later getting a harsh reality check. Something that remains true even to this day, perhaps even more so today. Rocky representing the more humble part of America who recognizes their shortcomings and works hard at them, while Apollo is too blind/arrogant to see them and pays the price for that hubris.

      Truly if this was reality today, it'd be Rocky as the hard working American doing his best to get by, while his trainer (the people they elected with the expectation they would actually be in service to them) is actively working with Drago (the Chinese) to undermine Rocky by screwing him over while lining his own pocket from two sources.
