Текст и перевод песни Vega - Tu vuò fà l'americano

Tu vuò fà l'americano

Puorte ′e cazune cu nu stemma arreto
Na cuppulella cu 'a visiera aizata
Passa scampanianno pe′ Tuleto
Comm'a nuguappo, pe' se fa′ guarda′
Tu vuo' fa′ ll'americano
Mericano, mericano
Sient′a mme chi t' ′o ffa fa'?
Tu vuoi vivere alla moda,
Ma se bevi "whisky and soda"
Po' te siente ′e disturba′
Tu abball' o′ rocchenroll
Tu giochi a baisiboll
Ma e solde p' e′ Ccamel
Chi te li da
La borsetta di mamma
Tu vuo' fa′ ll'americano
Mericano, mericano
Ma si' nato in Italy!
Sient′ a mme: nun ce sta niente ′a fa'
Ok, napulitan!
Tu vuo′ fa' ll′american
Tu vuo' fa′ ll'american!
Come te po' capi′ chi te vo′ bbene
Si tu lle parle miezo americano?
Quanno se fa ll'ammore sott′ 'a luna
Comme te vene ′ncapa 'e di′ "I love you"?
Tu vuo' fa' ll′americano
Mericano, mericano
Sient′a mme chi t' ′o ffa fa'?
Tu vuoi vivere alla moda,
Ma se bevi "whisky and soda"
Po′ te siente 'e disturba′
Tu abball' o' rocchenroll
Tu giochi a baisiboll
Ma e solde p′ e′ Ccamel
Chi te li da
La borsetta di mamma
Tu vuo' fa′ ll'americano
Mericano, mericano
Ma si′ nato in Italy!
Sient' a mme: nun ce sta niente ′a fa'
Ok, napulitan!
Tu vuo' fa′ ll′america
Tu vuo' fa′ ll'america
Tu vuo′ fa' ll′americano
Mericano, mericano
Ma si' nato in Italy!
Sient' a mme: nun ce sta niente ′a fa′
Ok, napulitan!
Tu vuo' fa′ ll'america
Tu vuo′ fa' ll′america
Whisky soda e rock and roll.
Whisky soda e rock and roll.

You Want to Be an American

You wear pants with a crest on the back
A cap with the visor tilted up
You pass as a Neapolitan in Toledo
Like a tough guy, to get yourself noticed
You want to be an American
American, American
Listen to me, who's making you do it?
You want to live in style,
But if you drink "whisky and soda"
You might get an upset stomach
You dance rock and roll
You play baseball
But the money for the Camel
Who gives it to you
Mommy's purse
You want to be an American
American, American
But you were born in Italy!
Listen to me: there's nothing you can do about it
Ok, Neapolitan!
You want to be an American
You want to be an American!
How can someone who loves you understand you
If you speak to them in half-American?
When you make love under the moon
How can you bring yourself to say "I love you"?
You want to be an American
American, American
Listen to me, who's making you do it?
You want to live in style,
But if you drink "whisky and soda"
You might get an upset stomach
You dance rock and roll
You play baseball
But the money for the Camel
Who gives it to you
Mommy's purse
You want to be an American
American, American
But you were born in Italy!
Listen to me: there's nothing you can do about it
Ok, Neapolitan!
You want to be an America
You want to be an America
You want to be an American
American, American
But you were born in Italy!
Listen to me: there's nothing you can do about it
Ok, Neapolitan!
You want to be an America
You want to be an America
Whisky soda and rock and roll.
Whisky soda and rock and roll.
