Napule

Naples

On that day near the river and the shore
They were coming from outside and they arrived here
It was a party and from the balcony
A sack and flags all over the city
Masaniello brought a babà
But the queen wanted to eat
It was like this with water and flour
A beautiful boy and a charming face

Then look at the flag and colors
Think of a monument dedicated to Majesty
Now I put two little tomatoes
With this mozzarella and a basil leaf
Then I want to light up an oven
In two minutes I'll let you taste
That pizza invented for the queen
That's why they called it Margherita

Naples
I told you about Naples
In the face of the old walls
You can read the story of this beautiful city

Gennarino grew up in Pozzuoli
He spoke only about people and Jesus
But there were those who didn't believe
And one day in September they wanted to face it
Against the devil, nothing can be done
But he knew that God was there
And so he learned to tame the Vesuvius
Which he knew how to stop

There was a prince without a lineage
Who had changed his identity
Became an important actor
For all these people he was the great Totò
And he died happy in poverty
To help many people live
That rich prince in his heart
But how much joy he was able to bring
Naples

One night I was in a boat in Sorrento
In an elegant sea dressed in blue
Under a sky dotted with stars
From an old palace someone sang
A voice was singing for me
I didn't see anyone because
It was the song of the great Caruso
That the sea had kept for itself
And so you started playing
Two words you knew nothing about
This song written in Sorrento
Now the whole world knows how to sing it
