Les paroles de la chanson
« American »
Lana Del Rey

Play house, put my favorite record on
Get down, get your Crystal Method on
You were like, tall, tan, drivin’ ’round the city
Flirtin’ with the girls like,
"You’re so pretty."
"Springsteen is the king, don’t you think?"
I was like, "Hell yeah, that guy can sing."

Like ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-oh

You make me crazy,
You make me wild
Just like a baby, spin me ’round like a child
Your skin so golden brown
Be young, be dope, be proud
Like an American
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh,
ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh
Like an American
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh,
ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh

Drive fast, I can almost taste it now
L.A., I don’t even have to fake it now
You were like so sick, everybody said it
You were way ahead of the trend, ge-get it
Elvis is the best, hell yes
Honey, put on that party dress
Like oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

You make me crazy
You make me wild
Just like a baby
Spin me around like a child
Your skin so golden brown
Be young, be dope, be proud
Like an American
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Like an American
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

You make me crazy, you make me wild
Just like a baby, spin me ’round like a child
Your skin so golden brown
Be young, be dope, be proud
Like an American
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh
Like an American
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh

Everybody wants to go fast
But they can’t compare
I don’t really want to the rest
Only you can take me there
I don’t even know what I’m saying,
But I’m praying for you.

You make me crazy,
You make me wild
Just like a baby,
Spin me ’round like a child
Your skin so golden brown
Be young, be dope, be proud
Like an American
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh,
Oh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh
Like an American
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh,
Ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh
Like an American
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh,
Ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh
Like an American
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh
