American Kid
Every summer, we'd climb this tree, me and my brother
The sun painted the sky as it fell down
Earth so silent, as we looked out for the north star
Guess we knew we weren't meant for that small town
One Christmas, we got a radio and a CD player
Power chords struck something deep inside
So addicted, we spent all of our money on our CD collection
Put posters up of all our favorite bands (all our favorite bands)
Before I loved somebody you had me tongue tied
And when I got nobody you make me feel right
When I was young songs
Before I loved somebody you had me tongue tied
And when I got nobody you make me feel right
When I was young songs
On to middle school, where there's something wrong with being different
I felt like I just didn't belong
I'd go home, hold a water bottle like a microphone
And put my headphones on and sing along
We couldn't wait to grow up, start a band
And write some records that would change the world and be forever sung
So we'll be playing our guitars and maybe someday, somewhere,
Some kid will find some solace in our song
(just like when we were young)
Before I loved somebody you had me tongue tied
And when I got nobody you make me feel right
When I was young songs
Before I loved somebody, loved somebody, loved somebody, oh
Before I loved somebody, you made me feel right
You made it all alright
Just a kid in America, just a kid in America
Just a kid in America, just a kid in America
Just a kid in America, just a kid in America
Just a kid in America, just a kid in America
The sun painted the sky as it fell down
Earth so silent, as we looked out for the north star
Guess we knew we weren't meant for that small town
One Christmas, we got a radio and a CD player
Power chords struck something deep inside
So addicted, we spent all of our money on our CD collection
Put posters up of all our favorite bands (all our favorite bands)
Before I loved somebody you had me tongue tied
And when I got nobody you make me feel right
When I was young songs
Before I loved somebody you had me tongue tied
And when I got nobody you make me feel right
When I was young songs
On to middle school, where there's something wrong with being different
I felt like I just didn't belong
I'd go home, hold a water bottle like a microphone
And put my headphones on and sing along
We couldn't wait to grow up, start a band
And write some records that would change the world and be forever sung
So we'll be playing our guitars and maybe someday, somewhere,
Some kid will find some solace in our song
(just like when we were young)
Before I loved somebody you had me tongue tied
And when I got nobody you make me feel right
When I was young songs
Before I loved somebody, loved somebody, loved somebody, oh
Before I loved somebody, you made me feel right
You made it all alright
Just a kid in America, just a kid in America
Just a kid in America, just a kid in America
Just a kid in America, just a kid in America
Just a kid in America, just a kid in America
