Lyrics
American Baby
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If these walls came crumbling down
And fell so hard to make us lose our faith
From what's left you'd figure it out
Still make lemonade taste like a sunny day
Stay beautiful baby
I hope you stay American baby
American baby
Nobody's laughing now
God's grace lost and the devil is proud
But I've been walking for a thousand miles
One last time I could see you smile
I, I hold, hold on to you
You bring me hope I'll see you soon
And if I don't see you
Oh, I'm afraid we've lost the way
Stay beautiful baby
I hope you stay American baby
American baby
American baby
I hold on to you
You lift me up
And always will
I see you in light
Hope I don't get left behind
I, I hold, hold on to you
You bring me hope I'll see you soon
And if I don't see you
Oh, I'm afraid we've lost the way
Stay beautiful baby
I hope you stay American baby
I hope you stay beautiful baby
I hope you stay American baby
American baby
American baby
