Lyrics

Porti i calzoni con uno stemma dietro
una coppola con la visiera alzata
passi scampanando per Toledo
come un guappo per farti guardare
Tu vuoi fare l’americano,
mericano, mericano,
stammi a sentire: chi te lo fa fare?
Tu vuoi vivere alla moda,
ma se bevi «whisky and soda»
poi ti senti male!
Tu balli il rock and roll,
tu giochi a baseball,
ma i soldi per le Camel
chi te li d?
La borsetta di mamm?!?
Tu vuoi fare l’americano,
mericano, mericano,
ma sei nato in Italy,
stammi a sentire: non c'? niente da fare
ok napoletano!
Tu vuoi fare l’american,
Tu vuoi fare l’american!
Come ti pu? capire chi ti vuole bene
se tu le parli mezzo americano?
Quando si fa l’amore sotto la luna
come ti viene in mente di dire «I love you»?
Tu vuoi fare l’americano,
mericano, mericano,
ma sei nato in Italy,
stammi a sentire: non c'? niente da fare
ok napoletano!
Tu vuoi fare l’american,
Tu vuoi fare l’american!
…whisky soda e rock and roll

Lyrics translation

Wear breeches with a coat of arms behind
a cupola with the visor raised
escape steps to Toledo
like a handsome man to make you look
You want to be an American,
mericano, mericano,
listen to me, who makes you do this?
You want to live in fashion,
but if you drink " whiskey and soda»
then you feel sick!
You dance rock and roll,
you play baseball,
but the money for the camels
who gives them to you?
Mamm's purse?!?
You want to be an American,
mericano, mericano,
but you were born in Italy,
listen to me, no? nothing to do
OK Neapolitan!
You want to be american,
You want to be american!
How can you? understanding who loves you
if you talk to her half-American?
When you make love under the moon
how can you think of saying "I love you"?
You want to be an American,
mericano, mericano,
but you were born in Italy,
listen to me, no? nothing to do
OK Neapolitan!
You want to be american,
You want to be american!
... whiskey soda and rock and roll
