American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama, let me be
Don't come hangin' around my door
I don't wanna see ya no more
I got important things to do
Than spend my time goin' 'round you
Now woman, stay away from me
American woman, listen what I say

American woman, get away from me
American woman, listen what I say
Don't come knockin' around my door
I don't wanna see your face no more
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, won't you get away
American woman, hear what I say

American woman
Yeah American woman, stay away from me
American woman, Mama what you see
Yeah don't come hangin' around my door
I don't wanna see your face no more
I don't need no war machines
I don't need no ghetto scenes
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Yeah woman, get away (get away)
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, stay away from me
American woman (American woman), let me be (let me be)

Go, gotta get away, gotta get away
Yeah American woman, let me be
American woman, yeah set me free
American woman, yeah American woman
American woman, yeah American woman

Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye bye

Yeah American woman, let me be
American woman, America woman

Thank you!

Eric Church

Eric Church is an American country music singer-songwriter from Granite Falls, North Carolina. After graduating from Appalachian State University with a business degree in 2000, Eric became engaged to a Spanish teacher from Lenior, NC whose father attempted to deter his musical aspirations by offering him a corporate career in Denver. After turning down her father’s offer, Church’s ex-fiance broke the engagement, giving Church motivation to move to Nashville and begin focusing solely on his music. Recollections of this turning point in Church’s life are heard throughout his lyrical portfolio (most prominently in “Those I’ve Loved”).

After a period of being overlooked by record labels and producers, Church was eventually signed to Capitol Records in 2006, making his debut with the album, Sinners Like Me. The album produced four singles on the Billboard Country Chart, “How ‘Bout You,” “Two Pink Lines,” “Guys Like Me,” and the album’s title track.

His second album, 2009’s Carolina, produced three more “Smoke a Little Smoke,” “Love Your Love the Most,” and “Hell on the Heart.”
