American Girl

Well, she was an American Girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin' 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 tryin'
She had one little promise she was gonna keep

Oh, yeah
Alright
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night
(Make it last all night)
She was
An American Girl

Well, it was kind of cold that night
She stood alone on a balcony
She could hear the cars roll by
Out on four forty-one
Like waves crashin' on the beach
And for one desperate moment, there
He crept back in her memory
God, it's so painful that something that's so close
Is still so far out of reach

Oh, yeah
Alright
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night
(Make it last all night)
She was
An American Girl

Oh, yeah
Alright
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night
(Make it last all night)
She was
An American Girl

I am
An American Girl
Oh, yeah
I'm an American Girl
I'm an American Girl
Oh, yeah
I'm an American Girl
