"Americana" is a song recorded by American country music artist Moe Bandy.
It was released in January 1988 as the first single from his album No Regrets.
The song is a salute to small-town America and a celebration of its values and camaraderie.
Various observations – elderly men playing checkers, children playing hopscotch and teenagers going on a date at a local soda fountain – are observed first-person style from a traveling performer, whose vehicle had pulled off of a four-lane highway for a short break.
The song was written by Larry Alderman, Richard Fagan and Patti Ryan noted Nashville songwriters.
