  • TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS - AMERICAN GIRL
  • Well, she was an American girl,
  • Raised on promises
  • She couldn't help thinking that there was a little more to life
  • Somewhere else
  • After all it was a great big world
  • With lots of places to run to
  • And if she had to die
  • Tryin', she
  • Had one little promise she was gonna keep
  • Chorus:
  • Oh yeah, alright,
  • Take it easy, baby
  • Make it last all night
  • She was an American girl.
  • Well, it was kind of cold that night,
  • She stood alone on the balcony
  • Yeah, she could hear the cars roll by,
  • Out on four forty one like
  • Waves crashing on the beach,
  • And for one des'rate moment there
  • He crept back in her memory
  • God, it's so painful when something that's so close
  • Is still so far out of reach
  • Chorus
