[Verse 1]
They pulled in just behind the fridge, he lays her down
He frowns, "Gee my life's a funny thing, am I still too young?"
He kissed her then and there, she took his ring, took his babies
It took him minutes, took her nowhere
Heaven knows she'd have taken anything

[Chorus 1]
All night, she wants the young American
Young American, young American
She wants the young American
All right, she wants the young American

[Verse 2]
Scanning life through the picture window
She finds the slinky vagabond
He coughs as he passes her Ford Mustang
Heaven forbid, she can take anything
But the freak and his type, all for nothing
He misses a step and cuts his hand
Showing nothing, he swoops like a song
She cries "Where have all Papa's heroes gone?"

[Chorus 1]
All night, she wants the young American
Young American, young American
She wants the young American
All right, she wants the young American
