check this song out on VH1 storytellers live performance if you want to get a better idea of what it means. dave says something about this song being about the happy loving side of america. ( cook outs bbs baseball good stuff). he said something like we can go blow people up and be tough guys but we shouldnt ever love our american dream kind of happiness.
even being a brazilian, this song give the chills.
Im wondering why its so hard to understand this song.
America once was free, beautiful history till the bullshit starts. Instead of a fair game they made a fascist power. so for me, Dave is wondering if this nation will be still after more than a century of corruption and dirty game at white house. Adressing America as American Baby is really cute and I respect that. Cant be anti-american after listen to Daves perspective of things, once I was.
A lot of people have wondered about the meaning of this song. For me it means "E Pluribus Unum" - Out of many, One.
The video shows scenes from across the nation, scenes of different people working and studing and striving to succeed and make themselves better. But what strikes me is how DIVERSE the people in this video are, yet they all make up the fabric that is America. I think that Dave is trying to say "Remember that we are all AMERICANS, and all contributing to the same cause."

Musically incredible, sad it embodies chauvinism. (At least, to me it's sad, I guess American's might see that differently). Still, great music from a great band. Dave rocks.
the ending gave u an orgasm? well good for u i guess lol. I love DMB but and i always like their videos, too i just dont fully understand what this song is talking about.
watch the abby road video of dave playing this for the meaning. the song was written after the 2004 election; a time when we were very divided(we being the American Citizens). The American Baby is everything that is innocent about American culture such as family cookout, fireworks on fourth of July, Thnxgiving, Xmas, family values, hard work. Daves saying lets not forget that aspect of America. Does that help at all?
Dave Matthews never looked so sexy, this video and his voice... Ufff.
