American Boy

Take me on a trip
I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York
I'd love to see LA
I really want to come kick it with you
Will you be my American boy?

He said "Hey, sister, it's really, really nice to meet ya"
I just met this 5-foot-7 guy who's just my type
Like the way he's speakin', his confidence is peakin'
Don't like his baggy jeans, but I might like what's underneath them
And, no, I ain't been to MIA
Heard that Cali never rains and New York's wide awake
First, let's see the West End, I'll show you to my ref's
I'm likin' this American boy

Take me on a trip
I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York
I'd love to see LA
I really want to come kick it with you
Will you be my American boy?

La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Will you be my American boy?

Can we get away this weekend? Take me to Broadway
Let's go shopping, maybe then we'll go to a café
Let's go on the subway, take me to your hood
I've never been to Brooklyn and I'd like to see what's good
Dressed in all the fancy clothes
Sneakers lookin' fresh to death, I'm lovin' those Chateaus
Walkin' that walk, talk that slick talk
I'm likin' this American boy

Take me on a trip
I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York
I'd love to see LA
I really want to come kick it with you
Will you be my American boy?

Could you be my love, my love, my love (Ooh)
Could you be my love, my love, my love (Could you be mine?)
Could you be my love, my love, my love (Ooh)
Will you be my American boy?

Take me on a trip
I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York
I'd love to see LA
I really want to come kick it with you

La-la-la-la-la-la-la (Oh, yeah, yeah)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la (Oh, could you be mine?)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la (Ooh, ooh)
Will you be my American boy?
