When I turned sixteen
Got a new car, five speed
Yeah, just my boy and me
We'd go riding around
And around and around
South Hills
He took me to the movies
Just us
Underneath the full screen
Oh my
He kissed me in the dark
It was true love from the start
That's when he caught, caught, caught me
I wanna be your American Girl
I wanna see, see this whole wide world
Let me be your American Girl
A-M-E-R-I-C-A place that will always be
I wanna be your American Girl
I wanna see, see this whole wide world
Let me be your American Girl
A-M-E-R-I-C-A place that we'll always belong
A-M-E-R-I-C-A
A-M-E-R-I-SEE
A-M-E-R-I-C-A place that we'll always belong
A-M-E-R-I-C-A
A-M-E-R-I-C-A
A-M-E-R-I-C-A
When I turned eighteen
I went away to see
If college was the dream
I met a boy on my spring break
And then I never finished the semester
Hollywood Hills
We ran and made a movie
Just us
Underneath the fullscreen
Oh my
We kissed as it went dark
True love from the start
That's what you taught, taught, taught me
I wanna be your American Girl
I wanna see, see this whole wide world
Let me be your American Girl
A-M-E-R-I-C-A place that we'll always belong
A-M-E-R-I-C
A-M-E-R-I-C
A-M-E-R-I-C-A place that will always belong
A-M-E-R-I-C
A-M-E-R-I-C
A-M-E-R-I-C-A
Cause when you know, go slowly
Take it slow
Cause you're the only one for me
It's simple
Cause when you know, go slowly
Take it slow
Cause you're the only one for me
It's simple
I wanna be your American Girl
I wanna see, see this whole wide world
Let me be your American Girl
A-M-E-R-I-C-A place that will always be
I wanna be your American Girl
I wanna see, see this whole wide world
Let me be your American Girl
A-M-E-R-I-C-A place that we'll always belong
A-M-E-R-I-C-A
