﻿<Note1:Leonard Bernstein>, text Stephen Sondheim, <Note1:Petr Kopta>
<Label:1.> [C]Nejlepší zem je A[F]merika! [C]Dolary všem dá A[G]merika!
[Eb]Pro všechny dost má A[Bb]merika, [Ab]příležitost je tu ve[C]Iiká! 
[C]Zdá se mi o městě San Juan. Ve snu i vagabund je [G7]pán! 
Sto květů vidět je tam kvést. [Dm]Sto flinků pod nohy [G7]se plést! 

<Label:2.> Nejlepši vůz je Amerika, nejlepší vkus má Amerika.
Amerika je zem veliká, Amerika je Amerika
Packarda mít v městě San Juan! Nebyl by špatnej, ten tvůj plán!
Svez by se bratranec i strýc. Už jich máš určitě zas víc!

<Label:3.> Bohatej stát je Amerika, tam odevšad chudej utíká.
Někdo nerad na ní přivyká, Amerika je Amerika!
Až jednou zas budu v San Juan! Svede tě kdejakej donchuán!
Navštívím, kdekoho jen znám. A oni ujedou sem k nám!

<Label:4.> Nadevšecko je Amerika! I to děcko, které od mlika
si odvyká, ze sna vzlyká: Amerika je Amerika!

2. Automobile in America, Chromium steel in America,

I'll drive a Buick through San Juan. If there's a road you can drive on.
I'll give my cousins a free ride. How you get all of them inside?

3. Immigrants goes to America, Many hellos in America,
Nobody knows in America Puerto Rico's in America!
I'll bring a T.V. to San Juan.If there a current to turn on!
I'll give them new washing machine ,What have they got there to keep clean?

4. I like the shores oj America! Comfort is yours in America!
Knobs on doors in America, Wall-to-wall floors in America!
When I will go back to San Juan! When you will shut up and get gone!
Ev'ryone there will give big cheer! Ev'ryone there will have moved here!

Buying on credits is so nice
One look at us and  they charge twice, no i don't
I'll have my own washing machine
What du you have though, to keep clean?

Skyscrapers bloom in America
Cadillac zoom in America
Industry boom in America
Twelve in a room in America
Lots of new housing with more place
Lots of doors slamming in our face
I'll get a terrace apartmnet
Beter get rid of your accent

Life can be bright in America
If you can fight in America
Life is all right in America
If you're all white in America

Everywhere Grime in America
Organized crime in America
terrible time in America
You forget I'm in America

Here you are Free and you have pride
Long as you stay on your own side
Free to do Anything you choose
Free to wait tables and shine shoes

I Think I'll go back to San Juan
I know a boat you can get on, bye bye
Everyone there wil give big cheer
Everyone there will have moved there
