Italian Girls

ITALIAN GIRLS As recorded by Rod Stewart (From the 1972 Album NEVER A DULL MOMENT) [Intro] [Verse 1] I’ve got two and more to show I was dreaming of a mobile That couldn’t be mine not without lyin’ Was I feeling kind a silly When I stepped in soakin’ beer down the cola machine? Oh stayin’ 17 Well she claimed she was a killer And she owned a floodlit villa A little aways from the main highway Oh take me way down yonder woo [Piano Solo] [Verse 2] She was tall thin and tarty And she drove a Maserati Faster than sound I was heaven bound Although I must have looked a creep In my army surplus jeep Was I being too bold Before the night could get old? No no no no She proved me so wrong [Verse 3] Oh the Italian girls sometimes hold their religious habits In front of your eyes just to get you tied Ah but not my little Bella ’cause I did not have to tell her That I’d be gone with the morning sun She made me so tired woo [Interlude] [Bridge] She took me way way away down yonder woo ’Til I was goin’ with the morning sun on my back woo [Outro] Gotta get on back there soon as I can Take me there And I miss the girl so bad Oh yeah wait a minute She broke my heart she broke my heart she broke my heart woo Gotta get on back there soon as I can I miss the girl I miss the girl I miss the girl so bad I was a lot better off
