American Woman

(The Guess Who)

American woman, Stay away from me -- American Woman, Mama 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 -- Then spend my time Growing old with you

American Woman Get away from me -- American woman Mama let me be

Don’t come Knocking around my door -- I don’t want to see your shadow No more

Colored Lights Can hypnotize -- Go and sparkle Someone else’s eyes

Now woman I said get away -- American Woman Listen what I say

American Woman I said get away -- American woman Listen what I say

Don’t come Hanging around my door -- I don’t want to see your face No more

I don’t need your war machines -- I don’t need your ghetto scenes

Colored 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, woman

I’m gonna leave, woman

Goodbye, American Woman
