American Boy Lyrics - Big Head Todd And The Monsters

He's an American boy with his hair combed back 

He's gonna buy himself a nice new car 

He's gonna marry one of them pretty cookin' wives 

And die alone in a big old house 

Oh, he was an American boy 

He gonna get a job that pays real well 

Go on vacation every year 

Have a fine young boy for the N.F.L. 

All without having to shed a tear 

Oh, he was an American boy 

Yeah, the American boy he is older now 

He's been shortened by the weight on his back 

He finally takes a look around to see 

There were a lot of other things that he could have been 

Oh, he was an American boy 

Oh, he was an American boy 

Oh, he was an American boy 

Oh, he was an American boy 

Oh, he was an American boy 

Oh, he was an American boy 

Oh, he was an American boy 

Oh, he was an American boy
