Take me on a trip I'd love to go someday
Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy
He said, "Hey, mister, really, really nice to meet ya"
I just met this five-foot-seven guy who's just my type
Like the way he's speaking, his confidence is peaking
Don't like his baggy jeans, but I might like what's underneath them
And no, I ain't been to MIA
I heard that Cali never rains
And New York's wide-awake
First, let's see the West End
Show you to my best friend
Liking this American boy, American boy
Take me on a trip I'd like to go someday
Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy
American boy
La, la-la, la-la, dee-da
La, la-la, la-la, dee-da
La, la-la, la-la, dee-da
You'll be my American boy

Can we get away this weekend?
Take me to Broadway
Let's go shopping, baby
Then we'll go to a café
Let's go on the subway
Take me to your hood
I never been to Brooklyn
And I'd like to see what's good
Dressed in all your fancy clothes
Sneakers looking fresh to death
I'm loving those Shell Toes
Walking that walk
Talk that slick talk
Liking this American boy, American boy
Take me on a trip I'd like to go someday
Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA
I really want to come kick it with you
You'll be my American boy
American boy
La, la-la, la-la, dee-da
La, la-la, la-la, dee-da
La, la-la, la-la, dee-da
You'll be my American boy

Would you be my love, my love?
Would you be my love, my love?
Would you be my love, my love?
Would you be my love, my love?
Would you be my love, my love? (Could you be mine?)
Would you be my love, my love? (Yeah, could you be mine?)
Would you be my love, my love?
You'll be my American boy, American boy
