Текст и перевод песни Dany Brillant - Tu vuo' fa l'americano

Tu vuo' fa l'americano

Puorte o cazune cu ′nu stemma arreto
'Na cuppulella c′a visiera aizata
Passe scampanianno pe' Tulete
Comm'a ′nu guappo pe′ te fa guardà
Tu vuò fà l'americano
Mericano, mericano
Sient′a mme, chi t'o fa fà?
Tu vuoi vivere alla moda
Ma se bevi whisky and soda
Po′ te siente 'e disturbà
Tu abballe o rockenroll
Tu giochi a baseball
Ma ′e solde pe' Camel
Chi te li dà?...
La borsetta di mammà
Tu vuò fà l'americano
Mericano, mericano
Ma sì nato in Italy
Sient′a mme
Nun ce sta niente a fà
Okay, napulitan!
Tu vuò fà l′american!
Tu vuò fà l'american!
Comme te po′ capì chi te vò bene
Si tu lle parle 'mmiezzo americano?
Quanno se fa l′ammore sott' ′a luna
Comme te vene 'n capa 'e di′ "I love you"?
Tu vuò fà l′americano
Mericano, mericano
Siente a me, chi t'o fa fà?
Tu vuoi vivere alla moda
Ma se bevi whisky and soda
Poi te sente ′e disturbà
Tu abballe o rockenroll
Tu giochi a baseball
Ma 'e solde pe′ Camel
Chi te li dà?...
La borsetta di mammà
Tu vuò fà l'americano
Mericano, mericano
Ma sì nato in Italy!
Sient′a mme
Nun ce sta niente a fà
Okay, napulitan
Tu vuò fà l'american
Tu vuò fà l'american
Tu vuò fà l′americano
Mericano, mericano
Sient′a mme, chi t'o fa fà?
Tu vuoi vivere alla moda
Ma se bevi whisky and soda
Po′ te siente 'e disturbà
Tu abballe o rockenroll
Tu giochi a baseball
Ma ′e solde pe' Camel
Chi te li dà?...
La borsetta di mammà
Tu vuò fà l′americano
Mericano, mericano
Ma sì nato in Italy
Sient'a mme
Nun ce sta niente a fà
Okay, napulitan!
Tu vuò fà l'american!
Tu vuò fà l′american!

You Wanna Be American

You wear your pants with a crest on the back
A little hat with the visor flipped up
You stroll, jingling your keys, down the street
Like a tough guy, showing off
You wanna be American
American, American
Listen to me, darling, why bother?
You want to live in style
But if you drink whiskey and soda
You'll only feel sick
You dance the rock and roll
You play baseball
But the money for Camels
Who gives it to you?...
Mommy's purse
You wanna be American
American, American
But you were born in Italy
Listen to me, darling
There's nothing you can do
Okay, Neapolitan!
You wanna be American!
You wanna be American!
How can anyone who loves you understand you
If you speak half-American?
When you make love under the moon
How can you bring yourself to say "I love you"?
You wanna be American
American, American
Listen to me, darling, why bother?
You want to live in style
But if you drink whiskey and soda
You'll only feel sick
You dance the rock and roll
You play baseball
But the money for Camels
Who gives it to you?...
Mommy's purse
You wanna be American
American, American
But you were born in Italy!
Listen to me, darling
There's nothing you can do
Okay, Neapolitan
You wanna be American
You wanna be American
You wanna be American
American, American
Listen to me, darling, why bother?
You want to live in style
But if you drink whiskey and soda
You'll only feel sick
You dance the rock and roll
You play baseball
But the money for Camels
Who gives it to you?...
Mommy's purse
You wanna be American
American, American
But you were born in Italy
Listen to me, darling
There's nothing you can do
Okay, Neapolitan!
You wanna be American!
You wanna be American!
