American Boy

Singin', singin', singin' ooh-la-la

He breaks my heart

I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar

And ooh-la-la, my American boy

(Singin', singin', singin')

And I met him back when I was out in California, ay

He was playin' in a band and she was dancin' on the stage

And he says that I'm the one but she's the one that got away

And he never knew her real name

Oh, and I don't mean to get so caught up and insecure

'Bout all the things you say (Say, say, say, say)

Oh, and I don't mean to be jealous

It's just careless me boy, I must drive you mad

Singin', singin', singin' ooh-la-la

He breaks my heart

I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar

And ooh-la-la, my American boy

Singin', singin', singin' ooh-la-la

He breaks my heart

I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar

And ooh-la-la, my American boy

My American boy

American, American, American boy

Oh, it's my American boy

American, American, American boy

Oh, it's my American boy

So I wanna know who's on your phone

Makin' me paranoid, makin' me bad

Makin' me sad, makin' me crazy

And makin' me feel like I needed to ask

I wanna know if you're at home

And if you're at home, baby, are you alone?

Are you alone? Answer your phone, oh baby

Oh, and I don't mean to get so caught up and insecure

'Bout all the things you say (Say, say, say, say)

Oh, and I don't mean to be jealous

It's just careless people almost drive me mad

Singin', singin', singin' ooh-la-la

He breaks my heart

I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar

And ooh-la-la, my American boy

Singin', singin', singin' ooh-la-la

He breaks my heart

I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar

And ooh-la-la, my American boy

(Singin', singin', singin')

My American boy

American, American, American boy

Oh, it's my American boy

American, American, American boy

Oh, it's my American boy

Singin' ooh-la-la

Ooh-la-la

I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar

Ooh-la-la

He breaks my heart

He do

Singin', singin', singin' ooh-la-la

He breaks my heart

I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar

And ooh-la-la, my American boy

Singin', singin', singin' ooh-la-la

He breaks my heart

I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar

And ooh-la-la, my American boy (boy, boy)

My American boy

Oh, it's my American boy

American, American, American boy
