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

But today she'll pay the bills

She won't think about the thrills

That pass away



[CHORUS]



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 lips are getting weak

She don't understand

Why she can't climb out of the sand

And break away



[CHORUS]



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



[CHORUS]
