- American Woman Lyrics

American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come hanging around my door
I don't want to see your face no more
I got more important things to do
Than spend my time growin' old with you
Now woman, stay away
American woman, listen what I say

American woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come knocking around my door
I don't want to see your shadow no more
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, get away
American woman, listen what I say

American woman, I said get way
American woman, listen what I say
Don't come hanging around my door
Don't want to 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
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be

I gotta go
I gotta getta away
Babe I gotta go
I wanna fly away
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
Bye bye, bye bye...
Bye bye, bye bye
American woman.....
And you're no good for me
And I'm no good for you
I look you right straight in the eye
And tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna leave you woman
You know I gotta go
I'm gonna leave you woman
I gotta go
I gotta go

I gotta go
American woman
Yeah

What is the meaning behind American Woman lyrics?


When it comes to the meaning of the lyrics, through the music of Lenny Kravitz, the song 'American Woman' reveals a very strong message of self-reliance, and the quest for freedom. The words narrate a struggle between the will to stay and the necessity to leave a bad relationship/situation denoted figuratively by the 'American woman', and this struggle highlights the importance of letting go and going for one's growth and emancipation. The lyrics of American woman carry mostly the imprints of anger, angst, heartbreak, and despair—the whole range of emotions—and at the same time, they also depict the struggle and eventual triumph of the song's protagonist over the feelings of rejection and dependence and the disillusionment that comes with it. The lyrics focus on the themes of rejection and independence, which may not be appropriate for very young children unless there is parental supervision. Explicit portrayals of violence, sex, or drug use are absent in the song, but the overall atmosphere and some vocabulary might justify a PG rating.
