Lyrics

A boy went back to Napoli
Because he missed the scenery
The native dances and the charming songs
But wait a minute; something's wrong!

Hey mambo,^ mambo Italiano
Hey mambo,^ mambo Italian
Go, go, go! ^You mixed up the Siciliano
All you Calabrese do the mambo like-a crazy with the

Hey mambo,^ don't wanna tarantella
Hey mambo,^ no more mozzarella
Hey mambo,^ mambo Italiano
Try an enchilada with a fishy baccala,

Hey Goomba
I love how you dance the rumba
But take-a some advice, ^paisano
Learn-a how to mambo
If ya' 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, che se dice.
You get happy in the feets-a when you
Mambo - Italiano.

Hey, Jadrool, you don't-a have to go to school.^
Just make it like a big bambino,
It's a like a vino.^
Kid you good-a looking but you don't-a know what's cooking till you...

Hey, Mambo,^Mambo Italiano.
Hey, Mambo, ^Mambo Italiano.
Ho, ho, ho, ^you mixed up Siciliano.
Hello, che se dice.
You get happy in the feets-a when you
Mambo - Italiano.
