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
Gods 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
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 life
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
'Cause you could always make me laugh out loud
Stay, American baby
American baby
Stay, american baby
American baby (american baby)
