The chorus, consisting of "Pa pa l americano" and "Fa fa l americano," encourages the listener to embrace American culture and to embody the spirit of whiskey, soda, and rock and roll. The song's lyrics reflect the idea of the fusion of cultures, and the celebration of exploring and mixing different cultural identities.
