American Boy (The Voice Performance)
Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York, I'd love to see L.A.
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy
He said, "Hey sister, it's really, really nice to meet ya"
I just met this 5-foot-7 guy who's just my type
I like the way he's speaking, his confidence is peakin'
Don't like his baggy jeans, but I'ma like what's underneath them
And, no, I ain't been to MIA
I heard that Cali never rains and New York heart awaits
First let's see the West End, I'll show you to my bredrin
I'm likin' this American boy
Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York, I'd love to see L.A.
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy
American boy
La, la-la, la-la
La, la-la, la-la
La, la-la, la-la
Would you be my American boy?
Can we get away this weekend?
Take me to Broadway
Let's go shopping baby then we'll go to a café
Let's go on the subway, take me to your hood
I've never been to Brooklyn, and I'd like to see what's good
Dressed in all your fancy clothes
Sneaker's looking fresh to death, I'm lovin those Shell Toes
Walkin' that walk, talk that slick talk
I'm likin' this American boy
Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York, I'd love to see L.A.
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy
Would you be my love, my love, mine?
Would you be my love?
Could you be mine?
Could you be my love? Ooh
Would you be my American boy?
Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York, I'd love to see L.A.
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy
Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York, I'd love to see L.A.
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy
American boy
La, la-la, la-la, la-la
La, la-la, la-la
La, la-la, la-la
Would you be my American boy?
