Hey, sister!
It's really, really nice to meet ya
I just met this five foot seven guy
Who's just my type
I like the way he's speaking
His confidence is peaking
I don't like his baggy jeans
But I'ma like what's underneath it
And no I ain't been to MIA
I heard that Cali never rains
And New York stays away
Let's go to the west end
I'll show you to my bedroom
I'm liking this american boy
American boy
Take me on a trip
I'd like to go someday
Take me to New York
I'd love to see LA
I really want to
Come kick it with you
You'll be my american boy
American boy
Can we get away this weekend?
Take me to Broadway
Let's go shopping
Then maybe we'll go to a Caffé
Let's ride on the subway
Take me to your hood
I've never been to Brooklyn
And I'd like to see what's good
Dress in all your fancy clothes
Sneaker's looking Fresh to Def
I'm lovin those Shell Toes
Walkin' that walk
Talk that slick talk
I'm likin' this american boy
American boy
Take me on a trip
I'd like to go someday
Take me to New York
I'd love to see LA
I really want to
Come kick it with you
You'll be my american boy
American boy
Would you be my love, my love?
Could be my love, my love?
Would you be my love, my love?
Would you be my american boy?
American Boy
(Take me on a trip
I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York
I'd like to see L.A)
I really want to
Come kick it with you
You'll be my american boy
American Boy
You'll be my american boy
American Boy
