《American Child (Originally Performed by Phil Vassar) [Karaoke Version] (伴奏)》歌词

[00:00:01] American Child - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)

[00:00:17] I was ten, I was thin,

[00:00:19] I was playing first base

[00:00:21] With a secondhand glove

[00:00:24] And dirt on my face

[00:00:26] In nowhere, Virginia

[00:00:29] Who'd ever figure that kid in the yard

[00:00:32] Would go very far

[00:00:35] It was 419 Lakewood,

[00:00:37] Had no silverspoons

[00:00:39] Just an old beat up upright

[00:00:41] That played out of tune

[00:00:43] Now I'm singinG

[00:00:44] And living the life that I love

[00:00:48] And when I count

[00:00:49] My blessings I thank God I was

[00:00:52] An American child

[00:00:56] An American child

[00:01:01] 'Cause dreams can grow wild

[00:01:03] Born inside an American child

[00:01:14] Seven pounds, three ounces,

[00:01:16] She's got my nose

[00:01:18] And she's into my heart

[00:01:21] As deep as it goes

[00:01:22] With a promise

[00:01:24] That's more than

[00:01:25] Just someone's last name

[00:01:27] Anyone's equal,

[00:01:29] In late August came

[00:01:31] An American child

[00:01:35] An American child

[00:01:40] 'Cause dreams can grow wild

[00:01:42] Born inside an American child

[00:02:02] My grandfather would

[00:02:04] Have been eighty today

[00:02:08] But in '45 he fell down

[00:02:11] Beside an American child

[00:02:16] An American child

[00:02:19] Oh, an American child

[00:02:25] 'Cause dreams can grow wild

[00:02:27] Born inside an American child

[00:02:33] An American child
