American Child - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)[00:00:01]
I was ten, I was thin,[00:00:17]
I was playing first base[00:00:19]
With a secondhand glove[00:00:21]
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[00:00:32]
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[00:00:41]
Now I'm singinG[00:00:43]
And living the life that I love[00:00:44]
And when I count[00:00:48]
My blessings I thank God I was[00:00:49]
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[00:01:03]
Seven pounds, three ounces,[00:01:14]
She's got my nose[00:01:16]
And she's into my heart[00:01:18]
As deep as it goes[00:01:21]
With a promise[00:01:22]
That's more than[00:01:24]
Just someone's last name[00:01:25]
Anyone's equal,[00:01:27]
In late August came[00:01:29]
An American child[00:01:31]
An American child[00:01:35]
'Cause dreams can grow wild[00:01:40]
Born inside an American child[00:01:42]
My grandfather would[00:02:02]
Have been eighty today[00:02:04]
But in '45 he fell down[00:02:08]
Beside an American child[00:02:11]
An American child[00:02:16]
Oh, an American child[00:02:19]
'Cause dreams can grow wild[00:02:25]
Born inside an American child[00:02:27]
An American child[00:02:33]
