An American in Sicily Songtext
von JP den Tex

An American in Sicily
Sunglasses over a Wall Street Journal
Have an afternoon tea
At the harbor terrazza
Go check out the local scene
Ask for your runaway
Gypsy queen
I′ll be diligent and driven
And bullet proof
And I'll take my baby home
An American in Sicily
It was like instant chemistry
I had to follow her trail I can′t pretend it never happened
But the locals practice omerta
God knows I'm fed up with opera
I'll be diligent and driven
And bullet proof
And I′ll take my baby home
Full moon′s fool
You 're in a no win situation
So when daybreak comes
Come and join me at the station
Where the whole town will be watching me
Some desperate American in Sicily


But the locals practice omerta
God knows I′m fed up with opera
I'll be diligent and driven
And bullet proof
And I′ll take my baby home
Yes I'll be
Diligent and driven
And bullet proof
And I′ll take my baby
Home
