American Honey Lyrics

She grow up on the side of the road
Where the church bells ring and strong love grows
She grew up good, she grew up slow
Like American honey
Steady as a preacher, free as a weed
Couldn’t wait to get going but wasn’t quite ready to leave
So innocent pure and sweet American honey

There’s a wild, wild whisper blown in the wind
Calling out my name like a long lost friend
oh I miss those days as the years go by
oh nothings sweeter than summertime and American honey

Get caught in the race of this crazy life
Trying to be everything can make you lose your mind
I just wanna go back in time to American honey

There s a wild, wild whisper blown in the wind
Calling out my name like a long lost friend
oh I miss those days as the years go by
oh nothings sweeter than summertime and American honey

Gone for so long now
I gotta get back to her some how
To American honey

There’s a wild, wild whisper blown in the wind
Calling out my name like a long lost friend
oh I miss those days as the years go by
oh nothings sweeter than summertime and American honey

This is a song is about a girl who grew up in a small town, moved away and realized how stressful her new life is. She wishes she could go back to the slow paced life she had always known.

i think this is such a perfect explanation of a great song. a girl wishes she could go back to her small-town life and the person she was when she was younger. maybe she has done some things that she regrets and wishes she could go back to the values she had when she was 'as steady as a preacher, as free as a weed.' great song.

It's about growing up and wanting to go back to those days, back to american honey, as the song puts it. When youu've grown up you're ready to get going, but at the same time, not quite ready to leave.

This song sounds to me like it's about a young lady who was raised out in the country with good character qualities. I love the line that says "So innocent, pure, and sweet/American Honey." It's so beautiful and poetic. One of my all-time favorite country songs.
