Mr.Big - American Beauty lyrics

rate me

Scars and bars and a no-tell motel

Black and white cars, pulling over backseat bombshells

A jack knife operation, crying out loud

Walking in a deadman's shoes then take the next train out

Step outside, get up off of your knees, American beauty

Step outta line, baby you got to say please, American beauty,

No place to run, get right back to where you started from

Standing in the shadows, it happened way too fast

Two desperadoes, fighting in the broken glass

Push comes to shove in a California minute

Blood on the tracks, you never look back, she ain't dead yet

Step outside, get up off of your knees, American beauty

Get outta line, baby you got to say please, American beauty,

No place to run, get right back to where you started from

Scars and bars and a no-tell motel, ooh

Black and white cars, pulling over backseat bombshells

A different education, dollar everyday

Give them all a happy ending, send them on their way

Step outside, get up off of your knees, American beauty

Get outta line, baby you got to say please, American beauty,

Get outta line, get up off of your knees, American beauty

No place to run, get right back to where you started from
