She grew up on the side of the road
Where the church bells ring and strong love grows
She grew up good

She grew up slow
Like American honey


Steady as a preacher
Free as a weed
Couldn't wait to get going

But wasn't quite ready to leave
So innocent, pure and sweet
American honey


There's a wild, wild whisper
Blowing in the wind

Calling out my name like a long lost friend
Oh I miss those days as the years go by
Oh nothing's sweeter than summertime

And American honey

Get caught in the race

Of this crazy life
Trying to be everything can make you lose your mind
I just wanna go back in time

To American honey, yea

There's a wild, wild whisper

Blowing in the wind
Calling out my name like a long lost friend
Oh I miss those days as the years go by

Oh nothing's sweeter than summertime
And American honey


Gone for so long now
I gotta get back to her somehow
To American honey


Ooh There's a wild, wild whisper
Blowing in the wind

Calling out my name like a long lost friend
Oh I miss those days as the years go by
Oh nothing's sweeter than summertime

And American honey
And American honey
