American Child (美国孩子) - Hit Co. Masters[00:00:00]
I was ten,I was thin,[00:00:16]
I was playing first base[00:00:19]
With a secondhand glove and dirt on my face[00:00:21]
In nowhere, Virginia[00:00:25]
Who'd ever figure that kid in the yard[00:00:28]
Would go very far[00:00:32]
It was 419 Lakewood,had no silverspoons[00:00:34]
Just an old beat up upright[00:00:38]
That played out of tune[00:00:41]
Now I'm singin' and living the life that I love[00:00:43]
And when I count my blessings I thank God I was[00:00:46]
An American child[00:00:51]
An American child[00:00:55]
'Cause dreams can grow wild[00:00:59]
Born inside an American child[00:01:02]
Seven pounds, three ounces, she's got my nose[00:01:12]
And she's into my heart as deep as it goes[00:01:16]
With a promise[00:01:20]
That's more than just someone's last name[00:01:21]
Anyone's equal, in late August came[00:01:25]
An American child[00:01:29]
An American child[00:01:33]
'Cause dreams can grow wild[00:01:38]
Born inside an American child[00:01:39]
My grandfather would have been eighty today[00:01:59]
But in '45 he fell down beside an American child[00:02:05]
An American child[00:02:12]
Oh, an American child[00:02:17]
'Cause dreams can grow wild[00:02:21]
Born inside an American child[00:02:23]
An American child[00:02:30]
