American Baby Songtext
von Dave Matthews Band

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
And 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


(That's the way) I hold on to you
You lift me up and, 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
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, alright
Stay, American baby
Beautiful

Nobody′s laughing now
It′s you could always make me laugh out loud

Stay, American baby
American baby
Stay, American baby
American baby
