Baci e Barattoli (Kisses and Cans)
jazzy croonerLyrics
[Verse]
I sashay through the market square,
With a whistle and an easy flair,
Big cans of tomatoes stacked so high,
I wink at Nonna as she strolls by.
[Verse 2]
I love a gelato in the summer sun,
Pinch a butt, then I'm on the run,
Mama says I'm crazy, wild and free,
Living la dolce vita, wait and see.
[Chorus]
Oh, baci e barattoli, life's a grand parade,
From the hills of Tuscany to Rome's parade,
Laughing with the ladies, oh, what a lively scene,
In my homeland of Italia, where the love is keen.
[Verse 3]
Big bowls of pasta, I'm a believer,
Fine Chianti makes a man a dreamer,
Playing cards with Tony by the street,
I tip my hat to every girl I meet.
[Verse 4]
Serenades under moonlight skies,
With passion and a bit of surprise,
Oh, the language of love in every glance,
Everyone's invited to this Italian dance.
[Bridge]
Now, some folks say I’m too free with my paws,
But in Italy, it's all laughs and applause,
For every shimmy, and every playful squeeze,
It's just amore, putting hearts at ease.
