We fell in together at a
parking lot
Sat on a car and talked and thought
We spoke of our dreams and how we would make them all
Come true one day, even if on the way, we had to rise after a fall
We don’t need men or mommies getting in our way
But if you have open minds then we can play
Just remember if you think we are haughty
We each control our own body
We won’t stay if you’re snobby
And we'll risk being called naughty

Yes, we are proud to be American girls!
Hot blooded and raring to go and make our way in the world
Hot blooded, all American girls - we were raised with a vision
Hot blooded and raring to go and make our way in the world
Hot blooded, all American girls - we were raised with a vision
Every day we’re on a mission with or without your permission!
We want to reach for the
stars and go were few have yet been
We have bold, young hearts and many successes to
win
Cause we’re born in a free country and we can try anything
We don’t bow to a preacher, a teacher, a parent or a king We each control our body; if we choose we’ll be naughty Though some may say we’re haughty, we won't listen to drivel
Cause we’re born in a free country and we can try anything
We don’t bow to a preacher, a teacher, a parent or a king We each control our body; if we choose we’ll be naughty Though some may say we’re haughty, we won't listen to drivel
Or
to blaming and shaming. Nor will we ever quaver or snivel
Yes, we are proud to be American girls!
Hot blooded and raring to go and make our way in the world
Hot blooded, all American girls - we were raised with a vision Every day we’re on a mission with or without your permission!
Hot blooded and raring to go and make our way in the world
Hot blooded, all American girls - we were raised with a vision Every day we’re on a mission with or without your permission!
We're going to shine, oh
so bright and we won’t hide our light
We're
going to keep up the fight
We’re going to strive to do right
and share some of our grace
We know we’ll be all we can be and we won’t be
put in our place
We’re not ashamed
of our beauty
So don’t you berate or get snooty.
If you can’t handle our pride,
Step
right off to the side - because we’re undaunted American girls!
Yes, we are proud to be American girls!
Hot blooded and raring to go and make our way in the world
Hot blooded, all American girls - we were raised with a vision
Every day we’re on a mission with or without your permission!
Hot blooded and raring to go and make our way in the world
Hot blooded, all American girls - we were raised with a vision
Every day we’re on a mission with or without your permission!
Happy Birthday, America! Rock on, American Girls!
