Honeymoon Tarantella/Girl with the Curly Black Hair
By: tom Torriglia

Instrumental Tarantella…..

There are lots of pretty women
Everywhere I go
Belle signorine
From Milan to Mexico
But, I must confess
The prettiest have to be
The ones that you find
On the aisle of Capri.

I love the girls north of Rome
(doo doo, dooooo-dooo)
They're tall, They're blonde
And they're cute
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
gott tell ya
I like 'em even more
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
From a little further down the boot
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)

Olive skin, Not too thin
You know what I mean
Ooooooo- AndThere's one right over there- Where?
It's a girly with the curly black hair

Oh, I love the girls of Genova
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
They flirt, Short skirts
Cool green eyes
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
But, I've got to tell you
Those girls down south
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
They really take the prize
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)


Olive skin, Not too thin


You know what I mean
Ooooooo-And There's one right over there- Where?
It's a girly with the curly black hair

Everywhere I just stare
Oh, mamma mia (oh, Mamma Mia)
Some swell-a bella winked at me
Gonna fall, What a doll
Oh, mama mia
Maybe she bacia mi.

Oh, I love the girls of Tuscany
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
They're soft, They're warm
They got style
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
But, I've got to tell you, The girls down south
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
Have these girls beat by a mile
(doo doo, dooooo -doo

Olive skin,
Not too thin
You know what I mean
Ooooooo-There's one right over there
Where?It's a girly with the curly black hair
 
Sax Instrumental

Everywhere
I just stare
Oh, mamma mia (Oh, Mamma Mia)
Some bella bella winked at me
Gonna fall
What a doll
Oh, mama mia
Maybe she will bacia mi.
 
Oh, I love the girls of Tuscany
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
They're soft
They're warm
They got style
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
But, I've got to tell you
The girls down south
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
Have these girls beat by a mile
(doo doo, dooooo -dooo)
Olive skin,
Not too thin
You know what I mean
Ooooooo-There's one right over there--Where?
It's a girly with the curly black hair
Ooooooo-There's one right over there--Where?
It's a girly with the curly black hair.
