Play house, put my favorite record on
 Get down, get your Crystal Method on
 You were like, tall, tan, drivin' 'round the city
 Flirtin' with the girls like, "You're so pretty."
 "Springsteen is the king, don't you think?"
 I was like,  [bad word] yeah, that guy can sing."

Like ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
 Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-oh

You make me crazy, you make me wild
 Just like a baby, spin me 'round like a child
 Your skin so golden brown
 Be young, be dope, be proud
 Like an American
 Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh
 Like an American
 Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh

Drive fast, I can almost taste it now
 L.A., I don't even have to fake it now
 You were like so sick, everybody said it
 You were way ahead of the trend, ge-get it
 Elvis is the best, [bad word] yes
 Honey, put on that party dress

Like ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
 Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-oh

You make me crazy, you make me wild
 Just like a baby, spin me 'round like a child
 Your skin so golden brown
 Be young, be dope, be proud
 Like an American
 Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh
 Like an American
 Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh

Everybody wants to go fast
 But they [bad word]  I don't really want the rest
 Only you can take me there
 I don't even know what I'm saying,
 But I'm praying for you.

You make me crazy, you make me wild
 Just like a baby, spin me 'round like a child
 Your skin so golden brown
 Be young, be dope, be proud
 Like an American
 Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh
 Like an American
 Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh
 Like an American
 Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh
 Like an American
 Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh

Like an American
