Stupid American Guy Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I bought a ticket to Paris

Not for the food or the art

For once I ignored my reasons from before

For once I followed my heart

And all I took was a suitcase

And my favorite guitar

For once I could see there was nothing else I need

For once I followed my heart

For once I followed my heart



[Chorus]

Don't wanna go to the Eiffel Tower

Don't wanna see the Mona Lisa

Don't wanna spend every waking hour inside an old cathedral

I have no need for the palace at Versailles

If it were up to me, we'd spend the whole week inside

And I guess that's typical of a stupid American guy



[Verse 2]

We went and met her whole family

We took a walk in the park

For once I could see there was nothing else I need

For once I followed my heart

For once I followed my heart



[Chorus]

Don't wanna go to the Eiffel Tower

Don't wanna see the Mona Lisa

Don't wanna spend every waking hour inside an old cathedral

I have no need for the palace at Versailles

If it were up to me, we'd spend the whole week inside

And I guess that's typical of a stupid American guy



[Bridge]

Baby, I won't go back to the states

Unless you're coming with me

Maybe New York City can wait

It can wait



[Chorus]

Don't wanna go to the Eiffel Tower

Don't wanna see the Mona Lisa

Don't wanna spend every waking hour inside an old cathedral

I have no need for the palace at Versailles

If it were up to me, we'd spend the whole week inside

And I guess that's typical

I guess that's typical

I guess that's typical of a stupid American guy
