l'America, l'America, l'America, l'America.
C'mon, people, don't you look so down;
You know the rainman's comin' to town.
He'll change your weather, he'll change your luck,
and then I'll teach you how to... find yourself,
l'America.
Friendly strangers came to town,
all the people put them down.
But the women loved their ways
come again some other day.
Like the gentle rain, like the gentle rain that falls.
I took a trip down to l'America
to trade some beads for a pint of gold.

l'America, l'America, l'America, l'America, l'America, l'America,
l'America.
