Jack Off Jill - American Girl lyrics

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
