Lyrics
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 sigialiano
All you calabraise, do the mambo like a crazy with a
Hey mambo, don't wanna tarantella
Hey mambo, no more a mozzarella
Hey mambo! Mambo Italiano
Try an enchilada with da fish a bac a lan and a
Hey goombah, I love a-how you dance a rhumbah
But take some advice paisano
Learn how to mambo
If you gonna be a square, you ain't a-gonna go nowhere
Hey mambo! Mambo Italiano
Hey mambo! Mambo Italiano
Go, go, Joe, shake a like Giovanno
Hello kess-a-deetch you getta happy in the feets a
When you mambo Italiano!
Shake a-baby, shake, 'cause I love when you take me
Mama say, "Stop, or I'm gonna tell papa"
And a hey Ja Drool
You don't have to go to school
Just make a wid da beat bambino
It's like a vino
Kid, you good a lookin', but you don't a-know what's cookin' 'til you
Hey mambo! Mambo Italiano
Hey mambo! Mambo Italiano
Ho, ho, ho, you mixed up Sigiliano
It's so delish, everybody come copisha
How to mambo Italiano!
'Ats nice
Huh!
