Phil Vassar - An American Child Lyrics

Send "An American Child" ringtone to your cell

I was 10

I was thin

I was playin first base

With a second hand glove

And dirt on my face

In nowhere Virginia

Who'd ever figure that kid in the yard

Would go very far

Cuz 419 Lakewood had no silver spoons

Just an old beat up upright

That played outta tune

Now I'm singin and livin the life that I love

And when I count my blessings

I thank God I was...

*Chorus*

An American child

An American child

Cuz dreams can grow wild

Born inside an American Child

7 pounds 3 ounces

She's got my nose

And she's into my heart

As deep as it goes

With a promise that's more than just someone's last name

Anyone's equal

In late August came...

*Chorus*

An American child

An American child

Cuz dreams can grow wild

Born inside an American Child

My grandfather would've been 80 today

But in '45

He fell down beside...

*Chorus*

An American child

An American child

Cuz dreams can grow wild

Born inside an American Child
