He said, Hey Sister. It's really really nice to meet ya. I just met this 5 foot 7 guy who's just my type. Like the way he speak here, his confidence is peaking. Don't like his baggy jeans but I'm a like what's underneath them. And no I ain't been to MIA I heard that Cali never rains and New Yorks wide awake. But first let's see the west end. I'll show you to my bridrens. I'm like this American Boy. American Boy.

I neva been to Brooklyn and I'd like to see what's good. Dress in all your fancy clothes. Sneaker's looking Fresh to death I'm lovin' those Shell Toes. Walkin' that walk. Talk that slick talk. I'm likin' this American Boy. American Boy.
[Chorus:] Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day. Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA. I really want to come pick it with you. You'll be my American Boy.
