A '57 Chevy, Red and White American Beauty Levi blue jeans twisin' all night American Beauty California girls, Rocky Mountain High A Texas star in a cowboy's eyes Shinin' like a diamond from sea to sea American beauty, American beauty
A Zebco Fishing Pole Fishin dowstream American Beauty Strummin on a '48 D-18, American Beauty Hot dogs, baseball, popcorn, football A cheer for victory NASCAR Racecar number 3 American beauty, American beauty

Miles of Wheat fields rolling to the skies American beauty Great white spaceship, Enterprise American Beauty Stampede of buffalo, Sitting bull, Geronimo, An eagle on wing From Alabama with a banjo on my knee American beauty, American beauty
She stands in the harbor In the city of dreams American Beauty Prettiest face I've ever seen American Beauty And she holds a torch And she wont let go I love her with all my heart And soul Id give my life To keep her free American beauty, American beauty American beauty, American beauty American beauty
Joe Bonsall's heartfelt comments about The Oak Ridge Boys' Grammy nominated inspiring, patriotic album, Colors...
"In 2003, The Oak Ridge Boys recorded a very special album project for the Spring Hill Music Group. Colors has become one of our most popular projects in the last decade. We recorded the CD to honor America and to pay tribute to those who have defended (and now defend) the freedoms of our great country. I believe we accomplished that goal with songs like An American Family, Colors, American Beauty, The Home Stretch, and This Is America."
