You Want to Be American

You want to be American!
mmericano! mmericano
Listen to me, who made you do that?
You want to live in style
But if you drink whiskey and soda
You might feel a little disturbed, ba ba do ba do da

You dance to rock and roll
You play baseball
But the cash for Camel
Who’s giving that to you? ...
Mom's purse!

You want to be American
mmericano! mmericano!
But you were born in Italy!
Listen to me
There’s nothing you can do
Okay, Neapolitan!
You want to be in America!
You want to be in America!

Oh say, can you see,
By the dawn's early light
(ba do 'n daa….)

You want to be American!
mmericano! mmericano
Listen to me, who made you do that?
You want to live in style
