American Woman Lyrics

Guess Who

American woman
gonna mess your mind
American woman
she gonna mess your mind
Mmm, American woman
gonna mess your mind
Mmm, American woman
gonna mess your mind

Say A, Say M, Say E, Say R
Say I, C, Say A, N

Mmm, American woman
gonna mess your mind
Mmm, American woman
gonna mess your mind
American woman
gonna mess your mind

American woman
stay away from me
American woman
mamma let me be

Don't come a-hangin'
around my door
I don't wanna see
your face no more
I got more important
things to do
than spend my time
growin' old with you

Now woman
I said stay away
American woman
listen when I say

American woman
get away from me
American woman
mamma let me be

Don't come a-knockin'
around my door
I don't wanna see
your shadow no more
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes

Now woman
I said get away
American woman
listen when I say

(instrumental)

American woman
I said get away
American woman
listen when I say

Don't come a-hangin'
around my door
I don't wanna see
your face no more
I don't need
your warm machines
I don't need
your ghetto scenes
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes

Now woman
I said get away
American woman
listen when I say

American woman
stay away from me
American woman
mamma let me be

I gotta go
I gotta get away
now, go go go
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman

Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye bye

You're no good for me
I'm no good for you
I'm looking at 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 you woman
Goodbye American woman
