[Verse 1]
You wear jeans with logos on the back pocket
And wear a cap with the peak raised up
You're jingling down the streets of Toledo
Like a guappo, looking for attention
[Chorus]
You want to play the American
'Merican, 'merican
Listen: who's forcing you to act like that?
You want to wear all the right clothes
But if you drink whiskey and soda
You'll get a hangover
You dance to rock'n'roll
You like to play baseball
But the cash for the Camels –
Who does it come from?
Your mom's purse
[Post-Chorus]
You want to play the American
'Merican, 'merican
But you were born in Italy!
Listen to me: there's nothing you can do
Ok? You're Neopolitan!
You want to play the American
You want to play the American
You wear jeans with logos on the back pocket
And wear a cap with the peak raised up
You're jingling down the streets of Toledo
Like a guappo, looking for attention
[Chorus]
You want to play the American
'Merican, 'merican
Listen: who's forcing you to act like that?
You want to wear all the right clothes
But if you drink whiskey and soda
You'll get a hangover
You dance to rock'n'roll
You like to play baseball
But the cash for the Camels –
Who does it come from?
Your mom's purse
[Post-Chorus]
You want to play the American
'Merican, 'merican
But you were born in Italy!
Listen to me: there's nothing you can do
Ok? You're Neopolitan!
You want to play the American
You want to play the American
