American Heart

She's up before the sun, on the run

Another dollar, another day, another cup of coffee

Thank you, Lord, for giving me one more

She still leans on her dreams but it seems

Sometimes she's the only one who still believes

That life is hard, so she takes it on

With an American heart

And it beats like a drum down in New Orleans

Sings like a Motown melody

It dreams like California

Bigger than the Texas sky

It bleeds, it scars

But it shines when times get hard

And you can't break an American heart

From the small town Friday night lights

To the Broadway neon burning up bright

We're all the same and it's in our veins

A spirit that you can't keep down

A fire inside that'll never burn out

If you are the owner of an American heart

'Cause it beats like a drum down in New Orleans

Sings like a Motown melody

It dreams like California

Bigger than the Texas sky

It bleeds, it scars

But it shines when times get hard

And you can't break an American heart

An American heart

And it beats like a drum down in New Orleans

Sings like a Motown melody

It dreams like California

Bigger than the Texas sky

It bleeds, it scars

But it shines when times get hard

And you can't break, you can't break

An American heart

An American heart

An American heart

God bless America

Land of the free

God bless America
