"America"
by Neil Diamond
Far -- We've been traveling far
Without a home -- But not without a star
Free -- Only want to be free
We huddle close -- Hang on to a dream
On the boats and on the planes -- They're coming to America
Never looking back again -- They're coming to America
Home, don't it seem so far away
Oh, we're traveling light today
In the eye of the storm
In the eye of the storm
Home, to a new and a shiny place
Make our bed, and we'll say our grace
Freedom's light burning warm
Freedom's light burning warm
Everywhere around the world -- They're coming to America
Every time that flag's unfurled -- They're coming to America
Got a dream to take them there -- They're coming to America
Got a dream they've come to share -- They're coming to America
They're coming to America -- They're coming to America
They're coming to America -- They're coming to America
Today, today, today, today, today
My country 'tis of thee -- Today
Sweet land of liberty -- Today
Of thee I sing -- Today
Of thee I sing -- Today

"I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus"
by T. Connor (c) 1952
I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus
Underneath the mistletoe last night.
She didn't see me creep
down the stairs to have a peep;
She thought that I was tucked
up in my bedroom fast asleep.
Then, I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white;
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If Daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night.
"Maria Elena"
written by L. Barcelato
Maria Elena you're the answer to a prayer;
Maria Elena can't you see how much I care?
To me your voice is like the echo of a sigh;
And when you're near my heart can speak above a sigh
Maria Elena say that we will never part;
Maria Elena take me to your heart.
A love like mine is great enough for two;
To share this love is really all I ask of you.
Maria Elena say that we will never part;
Maria Elena take me to your heart.
A love like mine is great enough for two;
To share this love is really all I ask of you.

"Santa Lucia"
O bella Napoli/ O suol beato/ Ove sorridere/ Volle
il Creato!
O lovely Naples, blessed land, where to smile is the Lord's command!
"L'Italiano"
by Toto Cutugno
Lasciatemi cantare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare
sono un italiano.
Buongiorno Italia, gli spaghetti al dente
e un partigiano come Presidente
con l'autoradio sempre nella mano destra
e un canarino sopra la finestra.
Buon giorno Italia con i tuoi artisti
con troppa America sui manifesti
con le canzoni, con amore, con il cuore,
con piu` donne, sempre meno suore.
Buon giorno Italia, buongiorno Maria
con gli occhi pieni di malinconia
buon giorno Dio
lo sai che ci sono anch'io.
Lasciatemi can tare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare una canzone piano piano
lasciatemi cantare
perche` ne sono fiero
sono un italiano
un italiano vero.
Buongiorno, Italia, che non si spaventa
e con la crema da barba alla menta
con un vestito gessato sul blu
e la moviola la domenica in TV.
Buongiorno Italia col caffe` ristretto
le calze nuove nel primo cassetto
con la bandiera in tintoria
e una 600 giu` in carrozzeria.
Buongiorno Italia, buongiorno Maria
con gli occhi pieni di malinconia
buongiorno Dio
lo sai che ci sono anch'io.
Lasciatemi cantare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare una canzone piano piano
lasciatemi cantare
perche` ne sono fiero
sono un italiano
un italiano vero.
Lasciatemi cantare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare
sono un italiano
lasciatemi cantare
perche` ne sono fiero
sono un italiano
un italiano vero.
