Yes 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 tryin'
She had one little promise
She was gonna keep
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 alone on her balcony
There's he taked his cars
Roll by out on 441
Like waves
Crashin' on the beach
And for one desperate moment there
He crept back in her memory
God it's so painful
Something that's so close
And he has so far out of reach
Oh yeah all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl
Oh yeah all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl
