Cassandra:
I met a girl in east LA
In floral shorts as sweet as May
She sang in eighths in two Barrio chords
We fell in love but not in court

NYADA Students:
Aah-America

Cassandra:
Mis canciones son de la revolución
Mi corazón me duele por mi generación
If you love me, we can marry on the west coast
On a Wednesday, en un verano de agosto

Cassandra with NYADA Students harmonizing:
I wanna dance, and love, and dance again
I wanna dance, and love, and dance again
Aah-America-Americano (NYADA Students: I wanna dance)
Aah-America-Americano (NYADA Students: I wanna dance)

Cassandra:
I will fight for
How I've fought for
How I love you (NYADA Students: La la la la la la la)

I have cried for
I will die for
How I care (NYADA Students: La la la la la la la)

In the mountains
Las campanas
Están sonando (NYADA Students: La la la la la la la)

Todos los chicas (Female NYADA Students: Chicas)
Y los chicos (Female NYADA Students: Chicos)
Se están besando (NYADA Students: La la la la la la la)

Cassandra with NYADA Students harmonizing:
I wanna dance, and love, and dance again
I wanna dance, and love, and dance again
Aah-America-Americano (NYADA Students: I wanna dance)
Aah-America-Americano (NYADA Students: I wanna dance)

If this would be a perfect world
We'd be together then (NYADA Students: Let's do it, do it, do it)

Only got just one life, this I've learned
Who cares what they're gonna say (NYADA Students: Let's do it, do it, do it)

I wanna dance, and love, and dance again
I wanna dance, and love, and dance again
Aah-America-Americano
I wanna dance
Aah-America-Americano
I wanna dance

Oh, oh, oh
I wanna dance
Aah-America-Americano

NYADA Students:
I wanna dance!

Cassandra:
I wanna dance!
