Verse 1
My (C major) father always believed
that (G major) everything (F major) in the world was Italian.
(G major) I was raised that (F major) way.
(C major) He told me (F major) everybody in the world
and (G major) everything in the world was Italian.
And I believed him.
(F major) I used take a walk with my father.
goes, (C major) Patsy, see that
horse over there?
That's a Navidad horse. (G major)
(F major) You see that (C major) pussycat over there?
That's a (G major) Barreza pussycat.
Because I remember (C major) 1951,
and all you gentlemen in this audience my age
and I'm 39 years old,
(G major) we got drafted to go to Korea,
(F major) 600 (G major) Italian boys in New York City,
(F major) 599 went to (G major) Fort Dix,
I don't bother me,
(F major) I went to South (G major) Carolina.
Nobody told me that the southern people (F major) did
n't know what an Italian looked like,
(G major) what he was all about.
I used to lay down on my (C major) bunk,
they used to pass my (F major) bunk.
That's an (B flat major) Italianio, (G major) yo, yo, yo.
Feel his skin, I think he's greasy.
And I remember one morning,
I'm standing at attention
and the sergeant says,
(C major) where's (G major) Pasquara Capitulio?
I said, you mean Caputo?
He said, I said (C major) that, where's Capitulio? (G major)
(F major) He said, would you tell
your mother
please don't (C major) send no more pepperoni and
provolone in those boxes?
(G major) All the (C major) oils going all over the
(G major) mail envelopes.
Hey, I ate anchovies,
they thought it was wines.
(F major) Thank God my mother used to (G major) send me jazz
and mar (F major) inara sauce.
Thank God, I used to put her over
the grits. (G major)
I thought it was rice,
I didn't know where it was.
(G major)
