The American Lyrics - 2000

[ Buy The American ]

She got it all
The boys they would crawl
Away from her door then they come back again
But don't let 'em in
Smoking their gin
Leaving their best foot out in the cold
I'm a waste of a momma's boy
It's a shame they say
There's so much you know he'll never enjoy
All the love you come to destroy


There's a moment lost in time
When she says hush
I'm on your side
It's just the two of us
You know that i
You know i'll never say goodbye


She smiles for me
It don't mean a thing
It don't take away the way it was before
I'm foolish and grown
I should've known
Her's was a world made for just one throne
I'm a waste of a momma's boy
It's a shame they say
There's so much you know he'll never enjoy
All the love you come to destroy


How many days can you waste it boy
It's a shame they say
There's so much you know he'll never enjoy
All the love we come to destroy


There's a moment lost in time
When she says hush
I'm on your side
It's just the two of us
Though they might try
