Lyrics

[Intro]
C5
          C5
American woman,

[Chorus]
Stay away from me
American woman,
Mama let me be

[Verse 1]
C5
Don't come hangin' around my door
I don't wanna see your face no more
I got more important things to do
Than spend my time growin' old with you

[Chorus]
    C5
Now woman, stay away,
American woman, listen what I say

[Interlude]
C5          C5
  American woman,

[Chorus]
Get away from me
American woman,
Mama let me be

[Verse 2]
C5
Don't come knockin' around my door
I don't wanna see your shadow no more
Coloured lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes

[Chorus]
    C5
Now woman, stay away,
American woman, listen what I say
B5 C5          C5
     American woman, said get away
American woman, listen what I say

[Verse 3]
C5
Don't come hangin' around my door
Don't wanna see your face no more
I don't need your war machines
I don't need your ghetto scenes
Coloured lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes

[Chorus]
    C5
Now woman, get away,
American woman, listen what I say
American woman,
Stay away from me
American woman,
Mama let me be

[Outro]
        C5
I gotta go, I gotta get away
Baby, gotta go, I wanna fly away
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
Leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
