The clip no cats in america from An American Tail (1986) with Nehemiah Persoff, Erica Yohn

Won't it be nice to get to America...
where we don't have to worry.
There are no cats in America,
but back home in Mother Russia...
ohh...
# Our family was traveling #
#Through the snow to Minsk #
# Suddenly Papa #
# Saw those huge paw prints #
#When I heard him screaming #
# I fainted dead away #
#And I woke up an orphan #
# Oy vey #
But...
But... But...
# But there are no cats in America #
#And the streets are paved with cheese #
#There are no cats in America #
# So set your mind at ease #
Ma la cosa terribile que esiste in la patria mia.
If you think things were bad in Russia,
you should see things in my country.
#The times were hard in Sicily #
#We had no provolone #
#The Don, he was a tabby #
#With a taste for my brother Tony #
#When Mama went to plead for him #
#The Don said he would see her #
#We found her rosary on the ground #
Poor Mama mia.
But...
# But there are no cats in America #
#And the streets are paved with cheese #
#There are no cats in America #
# So set your mind at ease #
Sure, that's sad,
but sadder still...
#When I was but a lad #
# I lost my true love fair #
#A calico #
# He caught us by surprise #
# In a flash of teeth and fur #
# Her tail was all he left of her #
