American Heart Lyrics by Faith Hill

2012

[Verse 1]
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.
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
'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
[Chorus]
And it beats like a drum down in New Orleans
Sings like a Motown melody
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
[Outro]
God Bless America
Land of the free
God Bless America
