When on foreign shores i am
Very truly yours i am
But if inclined to play i am
Sweetheart, that`s the way i am....
When in spain for reasons i don`t explain
I remain enjoying a brew
Don`t deplore my fondness for fundador
You know how a fundador can lead to a few
And baby when in rome i do as the romans do
If per chance i`m saying farewell to france
And romance drops in from the blue
Cherchez l`amour i beg of you please endure
My taking a brief detour with somebody new
It`s just that when in rome
I do as the romans do
And though from italy i lied to you prettily
Oh don`t think of me bitterly
But know that i`m true
Except now and then in rome,
I get that old yearn in rome
And naturally when in rome
I do as the romans do
molto difficile resistere agli uomini di italia
Per esempio, per esempio i biondi,
I biondi di firenze, di venezia
E i bruni di palermo, di milano...
You know what i mean?
If i write happily
Best wishes from napoli
Don`t cable me snappily
To tell me we`re through
Cause i`m once again in rome
In somebody`s den in rome
Well honey, but when in rome
I do as the romans do
So just disregard the signs and the omens
When in rome i do as the romans do...
Veni, vidi, vince!
