"American Heart" lyrics - FAITH HILL

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
