Intro

Verse 1

I met a girl with a lip tattoo

She looked skinny as a rail in those high heel shoes

She’s got a spot above Webster Hall

Claims to run this town with her hair in a ball

(Ooooo, ooooo)

She was small town girl USA

hell, her daddys bagging groceries, living day by day

I know she knows it aint her place

Shes tired of that living and the same clichés

Now She’s the first in her family to hold a degree

and her mommas waiting tables down at Ruby Tuesdays

& I aint saying that at all like its mean

cause her momma probably taught the girl

damn near everything

Chorus

So she’s gonna do what she wants to do

She’s gonna wear a one piece bathing suit

She’s gonna smile, she’s gonna scream

She’s a small town girl in a big city

Yeah, she’s making her moves

She’s got American Dreams (, , , x2)

Verse 2

So ohh look at you now

You’re a small town girl in a big old crowd

Your Moving up Making your scene

Ain’t making a dime but you’re living your dreams

And up there you’re gonna have your fights

But girl follow your heart You gonna do alirght

& I know that’s what you always do

You were born to be free.

Born for breaking the rules

Chorus

So she’s gonna do what she wants to do

She’s gonna wear a one piece bathing suit

She’s gonna smile, she’s gonna scream

She’s a small town girl in a big city

Yeah, she’s making her moves

She’s got American----

Bridge

Dreams don’t come from anyone else

They’re born in the beating deep inside

of your chest

Lord knows they do

And the harder you try the harder you might fall

But you’ll never learn nothing if it

aint ever your fault

So go on and do what you do

(, , , x2)

Come on and make us a move Oooo, oooo yeahh
