Everclear - American Girl lyrics

Yeah, she was an American girl Raised on promises She started 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 Yeah, 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 She was an American girl Yeah, it was kind of cold that night She stood alone on the balcony She could hear the cars roll by Out on 441 like waves crashing on the beach Yeah, for one desperate moment there She crept back in her memory God, it's so painful when something that's so close Is still so far out of reach Oh yeah, alright Take it easy, baby Make it last all night She was an American girl Uh huh Uh huh Uh huh Oh yeah, alright Take it easy, baby Make it last all goddamn night She was an American girl Yeah, American girl Yeah, American girl American girl American girl American girl
