You can see her walking down on a city street

The American girl, she's got the passion in her eyes

She's got the blush on her cheeks, the American girl

I love to watch her move, her body sways

She whispers, then she laughs, did you hear what she says?

I wanna know if she's talking 'bout me

Doing things her daddy can't see

The American girl, out in the dark

She's looking for love, oh, oh

The American girl, she breaks hearts

But that's not enough, she's such a mystery to me

Love is full of intrigue and full of Bogart mystique

The American girl, she's got the promise in the night

The romance in the back seat, The American girl

I love to watch her move, her body sways

She whispers then she laughs, did you hear what she says?

I wanna know if she's talking 'bout me

Doing things her daddy can't see

The American girl, out in the dark

She's looking for love, oh, oh

The American girl, she breaks hearts

But that's not enough, she's such a mystery to me

And she stares at herself in the harsh white light

And she draws in her cheeks just like the model

So unsure of herself in the big wide world

The American girl

The American girl, out in the dark

She's looking for love, oh, oh

The American girl, she breaks hearts

But that's not enough, she's such a mystery to me

The American girl, out in the dark

She's looking for love, oh, oh

The American girl, she breaks hearts

But that's not enough

The American girl, out in the dark

She's looking for love, oh, oh

The American girl, she breaks hearts
