You never crossed my mind As i crossed all of those borderlines Its an awful thing to say, im sorry But i was slipping away. I slipped away. Mary-Lou's a drifter Oh she bummed a roll-up and a ride And her southern drawl split those warm nights "Well its nice to meet you And youre very English well aint that swell. Oh come on kid lets give em' hell." Those American girls Those American girls Those American girls Those American girls (They make it easy) Jazz fourty-fives and Young dusty lust in 3 'o' clock wind I lost quick lovers to sloe gin I was happy chasing, Your skirt, Heartbeats racing Then i skipped across the world... You never crossed my mind As i crossed all of those borderlines Its an awful thing to say, im sorry But i was slipping away. I slipped away. Those American girls Those American girls Those American girls Those American girls (They make it easy)
