Dave Matthews Band

Dave Matthews Band, abbreviated DMB, is an American rock band that was formed in Charlottesville, Virginia, U.S. in 1991. The group's lyrical themes focus on topics ranging from God, love, sex, the enjoyment and appreciation of life, to ending racism, and political and anti-war statements. The founding members were singer-songwriter and guitarist Dave Matthews, bassist Stefan Lessard, drummer/backing vocalist Carter Beauford and saxophonist LeRoi Moore. Boyd Tinsley was added to the band as a violinist soon after the band was formed. Moore died suddenly in August 2008 due to complications from injuries sustained in an ATV accident. Grammy Award-winner Jeff Coffin, of Béla Fleck and the Flecktones, has since filled Moore's spot as the band's saxophonist. Rasha… more »

If these walls came crumbling down 
And fell so hard to make us lose our faith 
From what's left you'd figure it out 
Still make lemonade taste like a sunny day 
Stay beautiful baby 
I hope you stay American baby 
American baby 
Nobody?s laughing now 
God?s grace lost and the devil is proud 
But I've been walking for a thousand miles 
One last time I could see you smile 
I, I hold, hold on to you 
You bring me hope I'll see you soon 
And if I don't see you 
Oh, I'm afraid we've lost the way 
Stay beautiful baby 
I hope you stay American baby 
American baby 
American baby 
I hold on to you 
You lift me up 
And always will 
I see you in light 
Hope I don't get left behind 
I, I hold, hold on to you 
You bring me hope I'll see you soon 
And if I don't see you 
Oh, I'm afraid we've lost the way 
Stay beautiful baby 
I hope you stay American baby 
I hope you stay beautiful baby 
I hope you stay American baby 
American baby 
American baby
