American Child (美国孩子) - Ameritz Tribute Standards (阿莫瑞兹致敬标准)[00:00:00]
I was ten I was thin [00:00:17]
I was playing first base[00:00:19]
With a secondhand glove[00:00:22]
And dirt on my face[00:00:24]
In nowhere Virginia[00:00:26]
Who'd ever figure that kid in the yard[00:00:29]
Would go very far[00:00:33]
It was 419 Lakewood [00:00:35]
Had no silverspoons[00:00:37]
Just an old beat up upright[00:00:39]
That played out of tune[00:00:42]
Now I'm singin' and living the life[00:00:43]
That I love[00:00:46]
And when I count my blessings[00:00:47]
I thank God I was[00:00:50]
An American child[00:00:52]
An American child[00:00:56]
'Cause dreams can grow wild[00:01:01]
Born inside an American child[00:01:02]
Seven pounds three ounces [00:01:14]
She's got my nose[00:01:16]
And she's into my heart[00:01:17]
As deep as it goes[00:01:20]
With a promise[00:01:22]
That's more than[00:01:23]
Just someone's last name[00:01:24]
Anyone's equal [00:01:26]
In late August came[00:01:29]
An American child[00:01:30]
An American child[00:01:34]
'Cause dreams can grow wild[00:01:39]
Born inside an American child[00:01:41]
My grandfather would[00:02:00]
Have been eighty today[00:02:02]
But in '45 he fell[00:02:06]
Down beside an American child[00:02:09]
An American child[00:02:14]
Oh an American child[00:02:18]
'Cause dreams can grow wild[00:02:23]
Born inside an American child[00:02:25]
An American child[00:02:32]
