American Child (美国孩子) - Kid Drew and the Kids[00:00:00]
I was ten [00:00:17]
I was thin [00:00:18]
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 that played out of tune[00:00:38]
Now I'm singin' and living the life that I love[00:00:42]
And when I count my blessings I thank God I was[00:00:46]
An American child[00:00:50]
An American child[00:00:55]
'Cause dreams can grow wild[00:00:59]
Born inside an American child[00:01:01]
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 that's more than[00:01:20]
Just someone's last name[00:01:22]
Anyone's equal in late August came[00:01:24]
An American child[00:01:28]
An American child[00:01:32]
'Cause dreams can grow wild[00:01:37]
Born inside an American child[00:01:39]
My grandfather would have been eighty today[00:01:58]
But in '45 he fell down beside an American child[00:02:03]
An American child[00:02:11]
Oh an American child[00:02:14]
'Cause dreams can grow wild born inside[00:02:20]
An American child[00:02:23]
An American child[00:02:28]
An American child[00:02:32]
An American child[00:02:37]
