Album: other songsAmerican GirlWell she was an American Girl, raised on promises,
She couldn't help thinking that there was a little more to life somewhere else.
After all it was a great big world with lots of places to run to,
And if she had to die trying she had one little promise she was gonna keep.
Chorus.
Oh yeah, all right, take it easy baby, make it last all night,
She was an American Girl.
It was kinda cold that night, she stood all alone on the balcony.
She could hear the cars roll out on 441 like waces crashing on the beach.
And for one desperate moment there, he crept back in her mem'ry,
God it's so painful when somehting's so close but still so far out of reach.
Repeat Chorus.
