Mambo Italiano Lyrics
Artist: Rosemary Clooney
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 sicialiano
All you calabraise-a 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 lab and then 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 like a Giovanno
Hello kess-a-deetch-a you getta 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 "stop-a or I'm gonna go to papa"
And a hey ja drool you don't a have to go to school
Just make-a wid da 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

Ho, ho, ho, you mixed up Siciliano

I heard a version of this song in a Visa commercial and thought it was cool so I googled the lyrics lol
mi nina es italiano y me gusta la musica mucho its an inspiration para la mujer
Rosemary Clooney didn't write it, someone else sang it before her and she adapted it to be sung by a girl.
I like the disco version.

great song but whoever the lyrics is wrond.Hello kess-a-deetch-a ??? its, e lo che sei dice.
ONE OF THE WORDS IN THIS SONG IS JADROOL WHEN I WAS GROWING UP MY PARENTS SAID IT MEANT PICKLE IS IT TRUE?
jadrool also means bum. it can be used as an insult or playfully.
I just looked up "copisha." According to one source it doesn't mean anything.
Awesome - an all time great feel good song.
when i was growing up this song was always playing around the house and I finally found it!
я на турнире танцивала на бальных танцах это бесня бальных танцах
the awesome song and very energetic :D
very good, very good!
Now i'm hungry for pizza...
danielle hope did the best version on 'over the rainbow' it was amazing!!! love this song
i love this song! It has been in my head since danielle hope sang it in over the rainbow.
Rosemary was just so brilliant and a special person. Her songs bring peace and joy and laughs and smiles to me and countless of others. She will always live on in the hearts of so many. God bless you Rosemary!
i love when daniel did this for over the rainbow the song got stuck in my head for ages
i luva dis songa!
babbo!
sicilano all the way!
This is a badaass song niqquhs fur real
I am proud of my italian heritage. We are some crazy muhthahs and where the original gangsters come from. This song always brings back memories of childhood, strong family bonds, and lots of boisterous and loud fun!
Heard it on Radio Indigo a Fantabolous track ..just love it
i wanna go mmet my ancestors in italy.
This song makes me wish I were Italian!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!=)
copisha means "do you understand"
I believe that "copice" means "do you understand or do you "get it" " I am guessing that can be compared the question form on English's "Okay" As in...I am going to go leave now, okay?
I believe the song was so called "controversial" or "racy" is because it could be construed as a little racist. Though it is all tongue-in-cheek and in good nature. I love it!! Rosie can sing it and was originally from my town (Cincinnati!) but no one sings the song like 'ole Dino
I LOVE THIS SONG AND THE WAY IT IS I KNOW THAT IT IS NOT REALLY ITALIAN FULLY BUT I LOVE IT BECAUSE I AM 1/2 ITALIAN SO I LOVE THE SONG !!!!!! LOL

It's a good song =D
This song I love because when I hear it I think DANCE!

I LOVE This Song 0800 00 1066 This is the number for my boss if you wanna job.
worst translation from Italian ever
I LOVE This Song
Whenever my family throws a party, there is always a band playing this song, like at my relatives 25th anniversary party. :D
some of these lyrics are beyond wrong. "bac a lab" really? How about bacala. A very popular italian fish. There are soooo many things its not even funny.
i love love love this song and rosemary clooney!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)
It is not bac a LAB!!!!!! It's BaccaLA!!! It's a fish.
Heard this song in one of D&G's fashion show, I instantly became addicted.
To my Italian familia, Grazie Grazie. Growing up with my Italian family was the best, family first always. Party time at Fazios meant, " baby let the good time roll', I miss those times very much. But when I hear " Mambo Italiano" those where the days, great food, great family. Grazie, Nonna and nonno, of course mi mama and papa, so everybody lets mambo Italiano and have a great time... Ciao
This may be the worst song of all time. Goofy instrumental and absolutely vomit inducing vocals
Love the song, though I prefer Dean's cover.
