Meglio stasera
Baby go go go
Or as we natives say

"Fa subito!"
If you're ever gonna kiss me
It had better be tonight

While the mandolins are playing
And stars are bright
If you've anything to tell me

It had better be tonight
Or somebody else may tell me
And whisper the words just right

Meglio stasera
Baby go go go
Or as we natives say

"Fa subito!"
For this poor Americano
Who knows little of your speech

Be a nice Italiano
And start to teach
Show me how in old Milano

Lovers hold each other tight
But I want you sweet paesano
It had better be tonight

Meglio stasera
Baby go go go
Or as we natives say

"Fa subito!"
