Ah America

Ah eh ah

Ah America

Ah eh ah

I heard her story from across the sea

There was never one as fair lovely as she

With mocha skin and eyes of green

With all kindness and grace of a queen

I set sail into a cold dark sky

I had to see this beauty with my own eyes

I crossed the ocean in a tiny ship

With her image in my mind and her name on my lips

I set

Ah America

Ah eh ah

Ah America

Ah eh ah

I found her standing upon the shore

She was everything I dreamed of and so much more

I felt a love that I've never known

And I knew I had to make her my own

She was light of the night

She was dark as the night

I fell under her spell couldn't tell wrong from right

I set

Ah America

Ah eh ah

Ah America

Ah eh ah

She breathed new life inside of me

A whole new world she gave to me

Surrendered all she had to me

Even silver and gold

All she asked was my soul

I never thought she could break my heart

But all her contradictions are tearing me apart

The secret she hides

The beauty she flaunts

She'll stop at nothing just to get what she wants

I set

Ah America

Ah eh ah

Ah America

Ah eh ah

Ah America

Ah eh ah
