CIAO BELLA MAN
I was a foolish girl in Florence
Panting along the river after you
You were a dark and sexy Italian
Whom I’d my keys and papers and panties to
Well Florence is in Italy
With a smile like that you could sucker me
I don’t have a backup plan
Ciao Bella man
Come sucker me again
I was captivated cold by your swagger
Smitten by the way you said "Prego"
Then you drove right off in my FIAT
I just sat and watched your stick shift go
Well Florence is in Italy
With a smile like that you could sucker me
I don’t have a backup plan
Ciao Bella man
Come sucker me
Oh Florence is in Italy
With a smile like that you could sucker me
I don’t have a backup plan
Ciao Bella man
Come sucker me again...
