Aunt Joli was an innocent,
cute little girl.
In the cabaret Bella May
was singing about the USA.
The crowd walked on the streets
and the little girl got lost easily.
The chandler also made plans
because of that song. 1
America, the land of promise, America
the water of life floods in you across the sea,
across the sea, across the sea.
America, the land of promise, America
hold me, be my new home
where luck smiles at me.
Well, Uncle Aaron waved goodbye,
packed carefully.
Everything he had
fitted into a case.
Mr. Simeki started in the same way2
and now he's a millionaire.
That's the practice in America
if the man is a little smart.
America...
America, the land of promise, America
hold me, be my new home
where luck smiles at me.
The last picture still keeps
the memory of Uncle Aaron,
he waved from the window of the train.
1. Reference to the song in the 1st verse.2. Like Uncle Aaron.
