Mambo Italiano Songtext
von Alma Cogan

A girl went back to Napoli
Because she missed the scenery,
The native dances and the charming songs.
But wait a minute, something′s wrong.

Hey mambo, mambo Italiano.
Hey mambo, mambo Italiano.
Go, go, go, you mixed up Siciliano.
All you Calabrese-a, do the mambo like-a crazy with a

Hey mambo, don't wanna tarantella.
Hey mambo, no more the mozzarella.
Hey mambo, mambo Italiano.
Try an enchilada with da fish-a-bacala. And then-a

Hey goombah, I love-a how you dance the rumba,
But take-a some advice Paisano,
Learn how to mambo.
If you gonna be a square you ain′t-a gonna go nowhere-a,


Hey mambo, mambo Italiano.
Hey mambo, mambo Italiano.
Go, go, Joe, shake like a Gioviano.
Ho kess-a deech-a you get happy in the feets-a when you
Mambo Italiano.

Shake-a baby, shake-a, 'cause I love-a when you take-a me

Mama say, "You stop-a or I'm gonna tell your papa." And then

Hey jadrool, you don′t-a have to go to school,
Just make-a wit′ the beat bambino.
It's a like-a vino.
Kid, you good-a-lookin′ but you don't-a know what′s cookin' till you

Hey mambo, mambo Italiano.
Hey mambo, mambo Italiano.
Ho, ho, ho, you mixed up Siciliano.
It′s-a so delish'-a ev'rybody can capice-a how to
Mambo Italiano.
′Ats nice!
(Uhh!)
