Carolina Rain American Radio
1st Verse
The first time I kissed Julianne
In a Chevy van that was my old man's
It was George Strait's "Baby Blue"
And when she moved back to San Jose
It was "Missin' You" and "Purple Rain"
That I leaned on to get me through
Pre Chorus
It's been the soundtrack to my life
Since I remember
And my memories were all in stereo
Chorus
American radio
Keeps me singin' along
Livin' my life to the words of the songs
Of lovers and dreamers and hopeless believers
Like me
No matter where I go
I can always find an old friend
Somewhere there on the dial
To sing me right back home
On American radio (yeah, yeah)
2nd Verse
All I have to do is hear two notes
Of "Gimme Three Steps" and I'm back on a boat
With my Grand-dad in 1989
And all I need to hear are the first few words
Of "Jumpin' Jack Flash" or even "Free Bird"
And I'm ready for a good time
Chorus
American radio
Keeps me singin' along
Livin' my life to the words of the songs
Of lovers and dreamers and hopeless believers
Like me
No matter where I go
I can always find an old friend
Somewhere there on the dial
To sing me right back home
On American radio (yeah, yeah)
Bridge
It was Randy Travis on the beach
And Barry White in that back seat
The ups and downs, my highs and lows
I lived 'em all in stereo (stereo) (stereo)
Tag Chorus
American radio
Well, I'm still singin' along
Makin' up half 'a the words to the songs
Of lovers and dreamers and hopeless believers
Like me
No matter where I go
I can always find an old friend
Somewhere there on the dial
To sing me right back home (sing me home)
Come on, sing me right back home
On American radio
American radio
