AMERICAN BABY lyrics

She's the warm morning air on Memorial Day She's a walk-off run at the first home game The smell of fresh cut grass and pink lemonade The kind of magic you can't explain And I would try all night for the big door prize With just a twenty in my pocket under neon lights I swear to God, I'm on fire just like those stars in her eyes The way she colored my life like the Fourth of July Red like my face when she told me she liked me White like her shirt that came off in the back seat Blue like her tongue when she's drinking an Icee She's my American baby It's the torn out page of a smut magazine It's a flashlight tap at the drive-in screen Oh, it's the last slow dance with the homecoming queen Late nights at seventeen She's the game-winning shot as the crowd goes wild Under the stadium lights, I can't believe that she's mine I swear to God, I'm on fire just like those stars in her eyes The way she colored my life like the Fourth of July Red like my face when she told me she liked me White like her shirt that came off in the back seat Blue like her tongue when she's drinking an Icee She's my American baby Oh, oh Oh, American baby Oh, oh American baby Red like my face when she told me she liked me White like her shirt that came off in the back seat Blue like her tongue when she's drinking an Icee She's my American baby
