I'ma take this world, by the hands
I'll sleep in a five star suite, or I'll sleep in my van
No debit or credit cards, I'll take my tips in a can
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Postcards from every place, that I've been
Unfamiliar faces, now are friends

I'm livin' the dream I dream
City to city where the nights don't sleep
I want my full name on the front of the Marquis
You're gonna hear me, you're gonna see me
I'm livin' the dream I dream
City to city where the nights don't sleep
I want my full name on the front of the Marquis
You're gonna hear me, you're gonna see me
Live my dream

Now I'm far from home, I'm miles away
No longer the local scene, or the "L" train
Big letters spell Hollywood, welcome to fame
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
I no longer take the bus, I charter a plane
Room service at every stop, they take care of me

I'm livin' the dream I dream
City to city where the nights don't sleep
I want my full name on the front of the Marquis
You're gonna hear me, you're gonna see me
I'm livin' the dream I dream
City to city where the nights don't sleep
I want my full name on the front of the Marquis
You're gonna hear me, you're gonna see me
Live my dream

It's my time to shine, oh and make this whole world mine
I let go of everything that's holding me back
And embrace the simple fact
That I'm

I'm livin' the dream I dream
City to city where the nights don't sleep
I want my full name on the front of the Marquis
You're gonna hear me, you're gonna see me (Yeah)
I'm livin' the dream I dream (I'm livin' it up)
City to city where the nights don't sleep
I want my full name on the front of the Marquis
You're gonna hear me, you're gonna see me
Yeah
