- American Woman LyricsAmerican woman gonna mess your mind
American woman, she gonna mess your mind
American woman gonna mess your mind
American woman gonna mess your mind
Say A, say M, say E
Say R, say I, C
Say A, N
American woman gonna mess your mind
American woman gonna mess your mind
American woman gonna mess your mind
American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be
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
Now woman, I said stay away
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come knockin' around my door
Don't wanna see your shadow no more
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, I said get away
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, said get away
American woman, listen what I say
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
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Go, gotta get away, gotta get away
Now go, go, go, I'm gonna leave you, woman
Gonna leave you, woman
Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye
You're no good for me
I'm no good for you
Gonna look you right in the eye
Tell you what I'm gonna do
You know I'm gonna leave
You know I'm gonna go
You know I'm gonna leave
You know I'm gonna go, woman
I'm gonna leave you, woman
Goodbye, American woman
American woman, she gonna mess your mind
American woman gonna mess your mind
American woman gonna mess your mind
Say A, say M, say E
Say R, say I, C
Say A, N
American woman gonna mess your mind
American woman gonna mess your mind
American woman gonna mess your mind
American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be
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
Now woman, I said stay away
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come knockin' around my door
Don't wanna see your shadow no more
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, I said get away
American woman, said get away
American woman, listen what I say
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
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Go, gotta get away, gotta get away
Now go, go, go, I'm gonna leave you, woman
Gonna leave you, woman
Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye
You're no good for me
I'm no good for you
Gonna look you right in the eye
Tell you what I'm gonna do
You know I'm gonna leave
You know I'm gonna go
You know I'm gonna leave
You know I'm gonna go, woman
I'm gonna leave you, woman
Goodbye, American woman
Facts about American Woman
✔️
American Woman is written by Burton Cummings, Randy Bachman, Jim Kale, Gary Peterson.
✔️
It is first released in 1969 as part of Guess Who's album "American Woman" which includes 10 tracks in total.
✔️
When it comes to the meaning of the lyrics, the Guess Who's song "American Woman" sends out a message of freedom and non-conformity to the world around via its lyrics. The American woman symbolizes a strong persona that one wishes to shed by the negative influences of society. The constant 'get away from me' and 'let me be' not only indicate the artist's strong displeasure with compliance but also signal their assertion of identity. The American woman lyrics convey, even though in their own way, the feelings of anger, heartbreak, angst, solitude, and empowerment the most. On one hand, the song highlights the negatives of rejection and independence and disillusionment, while on the other hand, it speaks of the need to fight and get away. The lyrics touch upon relationship problems and the want for space, which is why I say they might be less suitable for kids without parents’ guidance. Still, there’s no strong language, violence, or explicit content that would lead to a higher rating.
✔️
American Woman falls under the genre Rock.

Obviously got cheated on by an American woman (there was a lot of that in those days). The experience was generalized and the war machine sentence is just to give it more weight.
