He's drivin' a jeep

But he ain't in the Army

Gets all his cigarette money

From his mommy

Dressed like a rootin' tootin'

Texas cowboy

But this lone ranger's

Never seen a horse



He wanna be Americano

Americano, Americano

He wants to drive a Cadillac

Now he's chasing showgirls

Smokin' Camels,whiskey and soda

Now he's never goin' back



He's cruisin streets for gold

Dressed in designer clothes

Brother if your too slow

You'd better not blink

Or you'll wind up in the drink



Wanna be Americano

Americano,Americano

Gotta buy a diamond ring

'Cause that's his baby's

Favorite thing

Okay,all right,yeah man

Wanna be American

Wanna be American



He's in the land where

Anything can happen

Reach for the stars

Grab that golden ring

Just remember he's Americano

well watch it pal

'Cause he'll take everything



He wanna be Americano

Americano,Americano

He wants to drive a Cadillac

Now he's chasing showgirls

Smokin' Camels,whiskey and soda

Now he's never goin' back



He likes that rock and roll

He's playing baseball

Loves Marilyn Monroe

A coca cola Joe

And a pizza pie to go



Wanna be Americano

Americano,Americano

Gotta buy a diamond ring

'Cause thats his baby's

Favorite thing

Okay,all right,yeah man



Wanna be American

Wanna be American

Wanna be American
