Original lyrics
Emigrant USA
Știi să speli un geam
Sau să mături pe-alei,
Mâine ești milionar
Totul e doar să vrei,
Emigrant... emigrant USA...1
„The American Dream”
Naște-ntruna zei;
Dacă simți chemarea,
Poți fi unul din ei,
Emigrant... emigrant USA...
Call me, call me every day, USA,
Call me every day, USA...
Pozele de pe gardu-ambasadei spun „Hai!”
Cadillacul te-așteaptă,
Numai viză să ai
Emigrant... emigrant USA...
El Dorado se-ascunde sub lumini și scântei,
Nu știi unde să-l cauți,
N-ai de unde să-l iei,
Emigrant... emigrant USA...
Call me, call me every day, USA,
Call me every day, USA...
Suflet transatlantic și stingher
Nu știi ce găsești,
Dar știi ce speri.
Fără nici un prieten printre yankei2
Nu-i deloc jucărie
Să câștigi banii grei.
(bis)
Call me, call me every day, USA,
Call me every day, USA...
Translation
USA Emigrant
You know how to clean a window
Or how to sweep the alleys,
Tomorrow you're a millionaire.
You just need to wish for it.
USA emigrant...
The American dream
Keeps giving birth to gods;
If you feel the calling
You can be one of them.
USA emigrant...
Call me, call me every day, USA,
Call me every day, USA...
The pictures on the embassy fence are saying "Come on!",
The Cadillac is waiting for you,
You just need your visa.
USA emigrant...
El Dorado is hiding under lights and sparks,
You don't know where to look for it,
It's nowhere to be found.
USA emigrant...
Call me, call me every day, USA,
Call me every day, USA...
Transatlantic and lonely soul,
You don't know what you will find
But you know what you're hoping for.
With no friend among the Yankees,
It's not easy
To earn good money.
Call me, call me every day, USA,
Call me every day, USA...
