　　There are certain songs that never seem to grow old for me despite(尽管)my having listened to them for years．Mat Kearney's Girl America is such a song．It appeared on the American artist's major-label debut(首张唱片), Nothing Left to Lose, in 2006．

　　What sets many of Kearney's songs apart are their unique combination of guitar and the spoken words．In Girl America, for example, he tells the story of a young woman who is struggling to make sense of her life．Actually, the girl's story resembles Kearney's own．

　　“I guess I lived it up and did what everyone said you should do in college,”he told the magazine Christianity Today after releasing(发行)his first album(专辑)．“I discovered…the bleakness(暗淡)of that lifestyle．It just wasn't working．I finally started understanding there must be more to life．”

　　This song describes such a turning point in the life of“Girl America”－an expression that simply means“an ordinary American girl”．
