American Girl by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Lyrics & Translation
English
Well, she was an American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin' that there
Was a little more to life somewhere else
After all, it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
And if she had to die tryin'
She had one little promise she was gonna keep
Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night (Make it last all night)
She was an American girl
Well, it was kind of cold that night
She stood alone on her balcony (Ooh)
Yeah, she could hear the cars roll by
Out on 441 like waves crashin' on the beach
And for one desperate moment there
He crept back in her memory
God, it's so painful when something that is so close
Is still so far out of reach
Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night (Make it last all night)
She was an American girl (Ooh)

American Girl* (original Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers)
Well, she was an American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin' that there
Was a little more to life somewhere else
After all, it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
And if she had to die tryin'
She had one little promise she was gonna keep
Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night (Make it last all night)

American Girl (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Bueno, ella era una chica americana
Criada con promesas
No podía evitar pensar que allí
Había algo más en la vida en otro lugar
Después de todo, era un mundo muy grande
Con muchos lugares a donde huir
Y si tenía que morir intentándolo
Tenía una pequeña promesa que iba a cumplir
Oh sí, está bien
Tómalo con calma, nena
Haz que dure toda la noche (Haz que dure toda la noche)
Ella era una chica americana
Bueno, hacía algo de frío esa noche
Ella estaba sola en su balcón (Ooh)
Sí, podía oír los coches pasar
En la 441 como olas rompiendo en la playa
Y por un momento desesperado allí
Él se coló de nuevo en su memoria
Dios, es tan doloroso cuando algo que está tan cerca
Todavía está tan fuera de alcance
Oh sí, está bien
Tómalo con calma, nena
Haz que dure toda la noche (Haz que dure toda la noche)
Ella era una chica americana (Ooh)
