Americana c'est un mot qui craque dans la nuit
Americana c'est un peu de rêve et de folie
Americana c'est un mot qui parle de géant
Americana a la fureur de vivre en noir et blanc
L'avion se pose en silence,
Comme un goéland qui vient de France
Sur la ville qui sommeille, l'ombre d'une statue ce réveille
Du ciel gris de l'Atlantique, au soleil brûlant du Pacifique
C'est une île qui vagabonde
une lie jusqu'au beau milieu du monde
Americana, Americana
C'est l'Amérique, qui fait rêver
Americana, Americana,
Joue ta musique fais moi danser
Manhattan, centième étage
Accroché son cœur dans les nuages
Quand San-Francisco s'affolent
Au rythmes des amours qui s'envolent
On se saoule de musique
Sur des mots souvent mélancolique
Las-Vegas et ses machines
Et ses filles sorties des magazines
Americana, Americana
C'est l'Amérique, qui fait rêver
Americana, Americana,
Joue ta musique fais moi danser
Americana c'est un mot qui craque dans la nuit
Americana c'est un peu de rêve et de folie
Americana c'est un mot qui parle de géant
Americana a la fureur de vivre en noir et blanc
Et moi qui suis d'ici d'ailleurs de nul part
Je refais souvent le voyage, ce voyage
Depuis que j'ai vu l'Amérique
Ces plages au parfums d'Acapulco
Plongées d'avenues au numéros
Et ses boulevards plus longs que des villes
Ces quartiers qui parlent en Italien
Restaurants Chinois ou Parisiens
Où chacun retrouve un peu de son pays
Americana c'est un mot qui craque dans la nuit
Americana c'est un peu de rêve et de folie
Americana c'est un mot qui parle de géant
Americana a la fureur de vivre en noir et blanc
Americana, Americana
C'est l'Amérique, qui fait rêver
Americana, Americana,
Joue ta musique fais moi danser
Americana c'est un mot qui parle de géant
Americana a la fureur de vivre en noir et blanc
Americana c'est un peu de rêve et de folie
Americana c'est un mot qui claque dans la nuit.

Dalida (Iolanda Cristina Gigliotti), nata a Il Cairo il 17 gennaio 1933 e scomparsa a Parigi il 3 maggio 1987, è stata una cantante e attrice italiana naturalizzata francese. Considerata una delle più grandi voci del XX secolo, ha venduto oltre 170 milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo.

Il suo successo internazionale arrivò con l'album "Salomé" (1968), che includeva il brano "Bambino", diventato un classico mondiale. Dalida ha collaborato con alcuni dei più grandi compositori del tempo, tra cui Charles Aznavour, Luigi Tenco e Ennio Morricone. La sua musica spaziava dal pop al jazz, passando per l'operetta e la chanson francese. Tra i suoi brani più famosi ricordiamo "Ciao amore ciao", "Parlez-moi d'amour" e "J'ai encore rêvé d'elle". Dalida ha interpretato anche diversi film, tra cui "La Belle de nuit" (1958) e "Il giorno della civetta" (1968).
