sarah buxton - american daughters lyrics
i left lawrence, kansas,
at the age of seventeen,
to chase down my own version,
of the american dream…
cowboy boots, a tie-dye dress,
in mom’s ol’ mini-van:
if a girl like me can do it, sister,
i believe anybody can.
oh, the land, she is my mother;
and freedom is my father.
yeah, and i am one of many,
strong, proud and beautiful american daughters.
i got married way too young:
no-one’s fault but mine.
an’ it hurts when you grow,
but you learn as you go that nothin’ heals like time.
i found my faith in god,
an’ my first apartment on my own.
an’ now no matter where i ever go,
i know i’ll never be alone.
’cause the land, she is my mother;
yes, and freedom,
(freedom.)
is my father.
yeah, and i am one of many,
strong, proud and beautiful american daughters.
resurrection bay, alaska;
the flinthills roll in kansa;
time square, new york city;
the mississippi delta;
anywhere in texas;
redstone, colorado;
sedona, arizona;
the pca to california;
it’s all home sweet home.
’cause the land, she is my mother;
yes, and freedom,
(freedom.)
is my father.
yeah, and i am one of many,
strong, proud and beautiful;
we’re all strong, proud and beautiful;
yeah, we’re strong, proud and beautiful american daughters.
strong, proud american daughters, yeah.
