American Woman - Digitally Mastered - May-June, 1988

American woman stay away from me
 American woman, moma 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 growing old with you
 Now woman, I said stay away,
 American woman, listen what I say.
 American woman get away from me
 American woman moma let me be
 Don't come knocking around my door
 Don't want to see your shadow no more
 Coloured lights can hypnotize
 Sparkle someone else's eyes
 Now woman, I said get away
 American woman, listen what I say.
 American woman, said get away
 American woman, listen what I say
 Don't come hanging around my door
 Don't wanna see your face no more
 I don't need your war machines
 I don't need your ghetto scenes
 Coloured lights can hypnotize
 Sparkle someone else's eyes
 Now woman, get away from me
 American woman, mama let me be.
 Go, gotta get away, gotta get away
 Now go go go
 Gonna leave you, woman
 Gonna leave you, woman
 Bye-bye
 Bye-bye
 Bye-bye
 Bye-bye
 You're no good for me
 I'm no good for you
 Gonna look you right in the eye.
 Tell you what I'm gonna do
 You know I'm gonna leave
 You know I'm gonna go
 You know I'm gonna leave
 You know I'm gonna go,
 I'm gonna leave,
 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
 Don't wanna see your shadow no more
 Coloured lights can hypnotize
 Sparkle someone else's eyes
 Now woman, I said get away
 American woman, listen what I say.
 American woman, said get away
 American woman, listen what I say
 Don't come hanging around my door
 Don't wanna see your face no more
 I don't need your war machines
 I don't need your ghetto scenes
 Coloured lights can hypnotize
 Sparkle someone else's eyes
 Now woman, get away from me
 American woman, mama let me be.
 Go, gotta get away, gotta get away
 Now go go go
 Gonna leave you, woman
