[Intro]
I met a girl in east LA
In floral shorts as sweet as May
She sang in eights in two Barrio chords
We fell in love
But not in court
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
(I don't, I don't)
[Chorus]
Ah! America!
Americano!
Ah! America!
Americano!
[Verse 1]
Mis canciones son de la revolución
Mi corazón me duele por mi generación
If you love me, we can marry
On the West Coast
On a Wednesday
En un verano, en Agosto
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't speak your
I don't speak your
Languagono
I don't speak your
I won't speak your
Jesus Cristo
[Chorus]
Ah! America!
Americano!
Ah! America!
Americano!
[Verse 2]
I will fight for, I have fought for
How I love you
I have cried for, I will die for
How I care
In the mountains, las campanas
Están sonando
Todos los chicos (chicas), y los chicos (chicas)
Están besando
[Pre-Chorus ]
I don't speak your
I don't speak your
Languagono
I don't speak your
I won't speak your
Jesus Cristo
I don't speak your
I don't speak your
Languagono
I don't speak your
I won't speak your
Jesus Cristo
[Chorus ]
Ah! America!
Americano!
Ah! America!
Americano!
Ah! America!
Americano!
Ah! America!
Americano!
[Bridge]
Don't you try to catch me
Don't you try to catch me
No, no, no, no
I'm living on the edge of
Living on the edge of the law, law, law, law
Don't you try to catch me
Don't you try to get me
No, no, no, no
Don't you try to catch me
Living on the edge of the law, law, law, law
