Louis Prima Baciagaloop
A bagiagaloop, and Maria
are keepin' company-a
he comes around to see her every night.
When he wants to make the woo,
there's a place he takes her to:
You can see them when the moon is shining bright!
Bagiagaloop, makes love on a stoop,
Cause Maria has a big a familia.
Bagiagaloop, makes love on a stoop,
On-a da step, he's full o' the pep with his Maria!
Her mama's in the kitchen,
her sister's in the hall.
Her brother's in the parlor,
ain't no room at all.
Bagiagaloop, makes love on a stoop,
it's the only place where he can be alone!!
That waitress Angelina, with her he used to neck.
But every time he'd kiss her, she put it on the check!!
So, Bagiagaloop, makes love on a stoop,
it's the only place where he can be alone!!
musical interlude
You've heard of Josephina, who make the neighbors yell,
well, Bacia was the fellow, who made her push the bell!!
Well, Bagiagaloop, makes love on a stoop,
it's the only place where he can be alone!!
Now, he had a girl, Felicia
she always told him no,
Maria she capice, but they got nowhere to go!
So, Bagiagaloop, makes love on a stoop,
it's the only place where he can be alone!!
And, now that they are married,
you think he'd do ok...
but 17 bambinos are always in the way...
There in the ATTIC, the GARAGE, the NURSERY,
the BEDROOM, the BATHROOM, the STOREROOM
The LIVING ROOM, DINING ROOM, DRAWING ROOM, KITCHEN.
The PANTRY, the LAUNDRY, the BASEMENT, the STUDY.
The PARLOR, the DEN and the HALL-over there and everywhere.
And now Maria's rolly-polly, from too much ravioli...
and things are getting tough, because the stoop ain't big enough!
So, Bagiagaloop, will have to build a bigger stoop,
it's the only place where he can be alone!
