American Girl
Well, she was an American girlRaised on promisesShe couldn't help thinking that there was a little more to lifeSomewhere else
After all it was a great big worldWith lots of places to run toAnd if she had to die tryingShe had one little promise she was gonna keep
Oh yeah, all rightTake it easy babyMake it last all nightShe was an American girl
Well, it was kind of cold that nightShe stood alone on her balconyShe could see the cars roll by out on 441Like waves crashing on the beach
And for one desperate moment thereHe crept back in her memoryGod, it's so painfulIt's something that's so close but still so far out of reach
Oh yeah, all rightTake it easy babyMake it last all nightShe was an American girl
Oh yeah, all rightLet's take it easy babyAnd make it last all nightOh yeah, all rightLet's take it easy babyOh, let's take it easy now
Oh yeah, all rightShe was an American girl
