American woman, stay away from me American woman, mama let me be Don't come hanging around my door I don't want to see your face no more I got more important things to do Than spend my time growin' old with you Now woman, stay away American woman, listen what I say
American woman, get away from me American woman, mama let me be Don't come knocking around my door I don't want to see your shadow no more Colored lights can hypnotize Sparkle someone else's eyes Now woman, get away American woman, listen what I say
American woman, I said get way American woman, listen what I say Don't come hanging around my door Don't want to see your face no more I don't need your war machines I don't need your ghetto scenes Colored lights can hypnotize Sparkle someone else's eyes Now woman, get away American woman, listen what I say American woman, stay away from me American woman, mama let me be
I gotta go I gotta getta away Babe I gotta go I wanna fly away I'm gonna leave you woman I'm gonna leave you woman I'm gonna leave you woman I'm gonna leave you woman Bye bye, bye bye... Bye bye, bye bye American woman..... And you're no good for me And I'm no good for you I look you right straight in the eye And tell you what I'm gonna do I'm gonna leave you woman You know I gotta go I'm gonna leave you woman I gotta go I gotta go
