[Intro] Hmm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm Oh oh, oh Haha!

Take me to Broadway Let's go shopping, maybe then we'll go to a café Let's go on the subway, take me to your hood I've never been to Brooklyn and I'd like to see what's good Dressed in all your fancy clothes Sneakers looking fresh to death, I'm likin' those shell toes Walkin' that walk, talk that slick talk I'm liking this American bo-oh-oy-oh-oy-oh-oy [Chorus] Take me on a trip, I'd like to go someday Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA I really want to come kick it with you Likin' this American boy [Verse 3] Hello, my name is S-A-M-S-P-A-double R-O to Sam And I grew up into a man from a baby in a pram I've got a lot to say, I've got lot to do And hopefully very soon I'll be in a town near you We can party all night, I'll entertain the crowd If you're anything like me you like to he-ear it loud I said Jamaica, Japan and all around, shake your chubby cheeks to my funky sound Would you be my love, my love Could you be my love, ooh Would you be my love, my love Would you be my American boy, ha! [Chorus] Take me on a trip, I'd like to go someday Take me to Chicago, San Francisco Bay I really want to come kick it with you Would you be my American boy, American bo-oy-oy, oh
