Capo on 6th fret
Two Gkids from Tacoma in a 'B772 Nova          
No pEmill and barely old enough to dCrink    
Learned the Gropes and tested science    
Started B7pentecostal riots    
In juEmst five minutes behind the roller-Crink    
In the Cmbackseat brings    
The American dGream on a shoestring    
First you grCow it, then you show it    
Give a good puGsh just like a Brady    
Say you'll lDove them 'till your eighty    
Too sGoon to be a mother and father    
But too latCe for the alma mater    
Yeah it's alwGays in the water    
DBabies makin' bGabies    
Between diGplomas and the diapers    
They bB7ecome couch quarter finders    
EmSavin' up for a Maytag microwCave    
Oh but aGll has been forgiven    
On the dB7ay the water christened    
The Embest thing that could have happened by mistCake    
The American dGream on a shoestring    
First you grCow it, then you show it    
Give a good puGsh just like a Brady    
Say you'll lDove them 'till your eighty    
Too sGoon to be a mother and father    
But too latCe for the alma mater    
Yeah it's alwGays in the water    
DBabies makin' bGabies     D  G  C  G  D  
Well it's a tGried and true equation    
Maintains a sB7mall town population    
And tuEmrns us all into a familCy    
The American dGream on a shoestring    
First you grCow it, then you show it    
Give a good puGsh just like a Brady    
Say you'll lDove them 'till your eighty    
Too sGoon to be a mother and father

Capo on 6th fret

G B7

Two kids from Tacoma in a '72 Nova

Em C

No pill and barely old enough to drink

Learned the ropes and tested science

Started pentecostal riots

Em C

In just five minutes behind the roller-rink

In the backseat brings

The American dream on a shoestring

First you grow it, then you show it

Give a good push just like a Brady

Say you'll love them 'till your eighty

Too soon to be a mother and father

But too late for the alma mater

Yeah it's always in the water

D G

Babies makin' babies

Between diplomas and the diapers

They become couch quarter finders

Em C

Savin' up for a Maytag microwave

Oh but all has been forgiven

On the day the water christened

Em C

The best thing that could have happened by mistake

The American dream on a shoestring

First you grow it, then you show it

Give a good push just like a Brady

Say you'll love them 'till your eighty

Too soon to be a mother and father

But too late for the alma mater

Yeah it's always in the water

D G D G C G D

Babies makin' babies

Well it's a tried and true equation

Maintains a small town population

Em C

And turns us all into a family

The American dream on a shoestring

First you grow it, then you show it

Give a good push just like a Brady

Say you'll love them 'till your eighty

Too soon to be a mother and father

But too late for the alma mater

Yeah it's always in the water

D Em G

Babies makin' babies

Yes it's always in the water,

D G B7 Em C D G

Babies makin' babies
