The Vegabonds
American Eyes
(Verse 1)
With the ink still drippin’ from an empty pen
Found a letter you wrote, said you’re gone again
You go trippin’ through the stars at night
Find a million dollar girl and put the moves on right
You got me thinking…oh you got me thinking

Can you send me some paper that I can spend?
Don’t think I can break, but I sure can bend
This pictures my friend, it’s my family
You’ve been more than a maker, been a friend to me

(Chorus)
See I want the girl with American eyes
With the sun kissed skin that money can’t buy
She can tell me no. While she takes me home

(Verse 2)
It’s not farewell, and it’s not goodbye
If they don’t call me the king, at least you know I tried
I walk alone, but not tonight
I found a million dollar girl, I put the moves on right

(Chorus)
See I want the girl with American eyes
With the sun kissed skin that money can’t buy
She can tell me no. While she takes me home
Oh take me home…
I want the girl. I want the girl. With American eyes…with American Eyes

(Chorus)
See I want the girl with American eyes
With the sun kissed skin that money can’t buy
She can tell me no. While she takes me home
I found the girl with American eyes
With the sun kissed skin that money can’t buy
She can tell me no. While she takes me home

I know…I know
