American Woman,

stay away from me

American Woman,

mama 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 what I say

American Woman,

get away from me

American Woman,

mama let me be

Don't come a

knockin' 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 a hangin'

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,

stay away

American Woman

Listen what I say

American Woman

get away from me

American Woman,

mama let me be

I gotta go,

gotta get away

Really gotta go

Gotta get away

I'm gonna leave

you woman

Gonna leave

you woman

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

I'm gonna

leave you woman

I gotta go

I'm gonna

leave you woman

I gotta go

Bye

I gotta go

I gotta go

American Woman

Yeah
