Look at Tony at the pizza stand
Hey watch him flip those pies
With one hand he throws them up
With the other he chases flies
Look at Rosy ha ha ha
Wiggling round just like a snake
Hanging homemade macaroni all around the fire escape
Hootenanny Italian Style
It’s the greatest feast in town
Hootenanny Italian Style
Clap your hands and dance around
Play the banjo and guitar
Everybody join the fun
Watermelon, lemonade, and hot sausage by the ton
No one’s dancing with fat Tessie
She’s too heavy on her feet
They remember last year when she fell and killed poor Uncle Pete
Have a piece of macaroni
It’s so hard it breaks your jaw
But the candy tastes so dandy
You’ll come back and ask for more
Hootenanny Italian Style
It’s the greatest feast in town
Hootenanny Italian Style
Clap your hands and dance around
Play the banjo and guitar
Everybody join the fun
Watermelon, lemonade, and hot sausage by the ton
There’s a watermelon man selling melons on the ice
When you hear him sing Sorrento you’ll buy more than just one slice
Look at little Josephine, that great big submarine
All that pepper round that sandwich
Yes So hot she’s turning green
Hootenanny Italian Style
It’s the greatest feast in town
Hootenanny Italian Style
Clap your hands and dance around
Play the banjo and guitar
Everybody join the fun
Watermelon, lemonade, and hot sausage by the ton
Everybody’s going wild
Hootenanny Italian Style
