Dave Matthews Band - American Baby Lyrics

Dave Matthews Band Lyrics

"American Baby"

If these walls came crumbling down
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
If for 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

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 hold on to you
You lift me up and always will
I see you in light
Hope I don't get left behind

Stay beautiful baby
I hope you stay American baby
American baby

Stay beautiful baby
I hope you stay American baby
American baby

Stay
American baby
Beautiful baby
Nobody's laughing now
But you could always make me laugh out loud
Stay
American baby
American baby
Stay
American baby
American baby
