Mambo Italiano lyrics

[Intro]

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:

[Gérard Darmon]

Hey Mambo! Mambo Italiano!

Hey Mambo! Mambo Italiano!

Go, go, go, You mixed up Siciliano.

All you Calabraise

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 enchalada with da fish-a-bacala

And then hey goombah!

I love how you dance the rumba.

But take some advice paisano,

learn-a how to mambo

If you gonna be a square

you ain't-a gonna go nowhere

The Hey Mambo! Mambo Italiano!

Hey Mambo! Mambo Italiano!

Go, go Joe, shake-a like a Gioviano,

hello kess-a deech

you getta happy in the feets-a

when you Mambo Italiano!

Shake baby, shake,

'cause…
