American Girl (Live at John F. Kennedy Stadium, 13th July 1985)

Well she was an American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinking that there
Was a little more to life somewhere else
After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
Yeah, and if she had to die... tryin' she
Had one little promise she was gonna keep
Oh yeah, alright, take it easy, baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl
Well, it was kinda cold that night
She stood alone on a balcony
Yeah, she could hear the cars roll by
Out on four forty one
Like waves crashin' on the beach
And for one desperate moment there
He crept back in her memory
God, it's so painful
Something that's so close
Is still so far out of reach
Oh yeah, alright, take it easy, baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl

Oh ho oh

Oh ho oh
