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 a 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 a when you take a me
Mama say, "Stop or I'm gonna tell a papa"
And a hey ja drool
