Xxx's and Ooo's (An American Girl)

Phone rings, baby cries

TV died, guru lies

Good mornin' honey.



Go to work, make up

Try to keep the balance up between love and money

She used to tie her hair up in ribbons and bows

Signed her letters with X's and O's.

Got a picture of her mama in heels and pearls

She's tryin' to make it in her daddy's world

She's an American girl

An American girl.



Slow dance, second chance

Mama needs romance

And a live-in maid.

Fix the sink, mow the yard,

Really isn't all that hard

If you get paid.



She used to tie her hair up in ribbons and bows

Signed her letters with X's and O's

Got a picture of her mama in heels and pearls

She's tryin' to make daddy's world

An American girl

An American girl.



Well, she's got her God

And she's got good wine

Aretha Franklin and Patsy Cline.



She used to tie her hair up in ribbons and bows

Sign her letters with X's and O's

Got a picture of her mama in heels and pearls

She's gunna make it in her daddy's world

An American girl

An American girl.

She's an American girl.



She used to tie her hair up in ribbons and bows

Sign her letters with X's and O's

Got a picture of her mama in heels and pearls

She's gonna make it in her daddy's world

She's an american girl, yeah.



When she tied her hair up in ribbons and bows

Sign her letters with x's and o's

x's and o's

x's and o's...
