She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stare too long, I'd probably break down and cry
Whoa, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Sweet love of mine
American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come hanging around my door
I don't want to see your face no more
I got more important things to do
Than spend my time growin' old with you
Now woman, stay away
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come knocking around my door
I don't want to see your shadow no more
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, stay away
American woman, listen what I say
One way, or another, I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna get ya get ya get ya get ya!
One way, or another, I'm gonna win ya
I'll get ya! I'll get ya!
One way, or another, I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna meet ya meet ya meet ya meet ya!
One day, maybe next week, I'm gonna meet ya
I'm gonna meet ya! meet ya Ahhh...
And if the lights are all out
I'll follow your bus downtown
See who's hangin' 'round!
One way, or another, I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna give you the slip!
A slip of the hip for another
I'm gonna lose ya, I'm gonna trick ya!
I'll trick ya!
One way, or another, I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna trick ya trick ya trick ya trick ya!
One way, or another, I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna give you the slip!
I walked down the mall
Stand over by the wall
Where I can see it all
Or in out who ya call!
Lead you to the supermarket checkouts
I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm drivin' in my car, and the man comes on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more about some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
I can't get no, oh, no, no, no, hey, hey, hey
That's what I say
I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm watchin' my TV
