letra de american kid - carsie blanton
[verse 1]
i was once an american kid
growing up on hallowed ground
rode to the river on a pretty red horse
in a pretty little country town
[verse 2]
but i grew up fast, and i cast my vote
for the president
and i had my doubts, but i still had hope
until i read the finer print
[chorus]
don’t look now, but it won’t be long
they’re gonna wonder what we did
and we’ll have to admit that we done them wrong
god help the american kid
oh, god help the american kid
[verse 3]
well i read the news and the paper too
and i see ’em on the tv screen
maybe they know not what they do
but i wish they’d say what they mean
[verse 4]
we stole this nation, fair and square
and a whole lot of people in chains
but it was all for the glory of god, i swear
and the glory of capital gains
[chorus]
don’t look now, but it won’t be long
they’re gonna wonder what we did
and we’ll have to admit that we done them wrong
god help the american kid
oh, god help the american kid
[bridge]
all the little kids all around the world
some have and others don’t
god loves all the boys and girls
god knows america won’t
i hear them holler in my head
can you hear that lonesome sound?
well it may be true that we made our bed
but i ain’t taking it lying down
[chorus]
don’t look now, but it won’t be long
they’re gonna wonder what we did
and we’ll have to admit that we done them wrong
god help the american kid
oh, god help the american kid
god help the american kid
