Below, you will find the lyrics for American Boy by Little Mix.
Chorus 1
Singing, singing, singing
Ooh la la, he breaks my heart
I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar
And ooh la la, my american boy
Verse 1
And i met him back when i was out in californ'-i-a
He was playing in a band and she was dancing on a stage
And he says that i'm the one but she's the one that got away
And he never knew her real name
Chorus 2
And i don't mean to get so caught up
And insecure 'bout all the things you say
And i don't mean to be jealous, it's just careless me
Boy, i must drive you mad
Singing, singing, singing
Ooh la la, he breaks my heart
I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar
And ooh la la, my american boy
Singing, singing, singing
Ooh la la, he breaks my heart
I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar
And ooh la la, my american boy
My american boy
American, 'merican, 'merican boy
You know, it's my american boy
American, 'merican, 'merican boy
You know, it's my american boy
Verse 2
So i wanna know who's on your phone
Making me paranoid, making me bad
Making me sad, making me crazy
Making me feel like i needed to ask
I wanna know if you're at home
And if you're at home, baby, are you alone?
Are you alone? answer your phone
Baby, no no no
Chorus 3
And i don't mean to get so caught up
And insecure 'bout all the things you say
And i don't mean to be jealous, it's just careless me
Boy, i must drive you mad
Singing, singing, singing
Ooh la la, he breaks my heart
I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar
And ooh la la, my american boy
Singing, singing, singing
Ooh la la, he breaks my heart
I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar
And ooh la la, my american boy
My american boy
American, 'merican, 'merican boy
You know, it's my american boy
American, 'merican, 'merican boy
You know, it's my american boy
Bridge
Singing ooh la la, ooh la la
I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar
Ooh la la, he breaks my heart
He do, my american boy
Chorus 4

Ooh la la, he breaks my heart
I know he thinks about her when he plays guitar, no

And ooh la la, my american boy
My american boy
