Andrew Sisters - Ciribirbin lyrics

rate me

(Harry James/Jack Lawrence/Alberto Pestalozza)

When the moon hangs low in Napoli

There's a handsome gondolier

Every night he sings so happily

So his lady love can hear

In a manner so gravissimo

He repeats his serenade

And his heart beats so fortissimo

When she raises her Venetian shade

Ciribiribin, ciribiribin, ciribiribin

Ciribiribin, he waits for her each night beneath her balcony

Ciribiribin, he begs to hold her tight, but no, she won't agree

Ciribiribin, she throws a rose and blows a kiss from up above

Ciribiribin, ciribiribin, ciribiribin, they're so in love

Ciribiribin, he waits for her each night beneath her little balcony

Ciribiribin, he begs to hold her tight, but no, oh no, no, she won't agree

Ciribiribin, she throws a rose and blows a kiss from up above

Ciribiribin, ciribiribin, they're so in love

Ciribiribin che bel faccin

Che sguardo dolce assassin

Ciribiribin, ciribirbin, ciribirbin, che bel faccin
