Artist/Band: Melissa Etheridge
Lyrics for Song: All American Girl
Lyrics for Album: Teresa's Tattoo [original soundtrack] [1994]



She wakes up in the morning

With a pain in her jet black head

A decaf coffee in her hand and a Marlboro Red

She drives down to the office in her Japanese car

With the radio blasting, she dreams of taking it too far

Today she'll pay the bills

She won't think about the thrills that pass away



She's an all American girl, an all American girl

And she will live and die in this man's world

An all American girl



Her eyes are black as leather, and her hair is killer red

How could she keep the baby

When she can barely keep her head

She don't owe nobody nothing, and she ain't on the street

But these drinks are getting heavy

And these tips are getting weak

And she don't understand

Why she can't climb out of the sand and break away



She's an all American girl, an all American girl

And she will live and die in this man's world

An all American girl



Her lover never came home, and it's half past three

Today her best friend told her he's HIV

Something's gotta give somewhere

Forcing circles into squares, she keeps pushing on



She's an all American girl, an all American girl

And she will live and die in this man's world

An all American girl



She's an all American girl

She's an all American girl

An all American girl

She's an all American girl

An all American girl
