American Boy (by Sam Sparro)
Take me on a trip I'd like to go someday
Take me to New York I'd love to see L.A.
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American Boy
He said, Hey Mister, it's really really nice to meet you
I just met this 5 foot 7 guy who's just my type
Like the way he's speakin', his confidence is peekin'
Don't like his baggy jeans but I might like what's underneath them
And, No I ain't been to M.I.A.
I heard that Cali never rains and New York's heart awaits
First let's see the West End, Show you to my Bedroom
I'm likin' this American Boy
Take me on a trip I'd like to go someday
Take me to New York I'd love to see L.A.
I really want to come kick it with you
Would you be my American Boy
Can we get away this weekend ? Take me to Broadway
Let's go shoppin' maybe then we'll go to a cafe
Let's go on the subway, take me to your hood
I've never been to Brooklyn and I'd like to see what's good
Dressed in all your fancy clothes
Sneakers lookin' fresh to death, I'm likin' those shell toes
Walkin' that walk, Talk that slick talk
I'm likin' this American Boy
Take me on a trip I'd like to go someday
Take me to New York I'd love to see L.A.
I really want to come kick it with you
I'm liking this American Boy
Hello My name is S.A.M.S.P.A.double R O jeezam
And I grew up to a man from a baby in a pram
I've got a lot to say, I've got a lot to do
And hopefully very soon I'll be in the town near you
We can party all night, I'll entertain the crowd
If you're anything like me, you like to hear it loud
I said Jamaïca, Japan and all around
Just dip your chubby cheeks to my funky sound
Would you be my love, my love
Could you be my love, hoooo
Would you be my love, my love
Would you be my American Boy
Take me on a trip I'd like to go someday
Take me to Chicago, San Fransisco Bay
I really want to come kick it with you
Would you be my American Boy
