Christmas Eve in Italy
Is Santa's favorite stop
He tarantella to jingle bella
Up on the chimney top

Christmas Eve in Italy 
is Santa's favorite spot
The little bambino, they leave him the vino
and pasta in a pot

 A red linguini and veal scalopini and
ministrone soup
He mangia salami and a little pastrami 
and lots of bread and fruit
Two strumboli and pasta faggioli
and antipasto too
Mozzarella and Sfilidella
some olives and prosciutte

Christmas Eve in Italy
Is Santa's favorite stop
He tarantella to jingle bella
Up on the chimney top

Christmas Eve in Italy
Santa's having fun
But reindeer Rudolpho say he had enough oh 
 Sleigh will weigh a ton

Ho ho ho - the candy canes, the boulabaise
Ho ho ho - he'll mangia till he drop 
Ho ho ho the demi tasse give him gas
Ho ho ho - oh will he ever stop

Spoken - Buon Apetite, Santa
             Mangia, mangia
             How'bout another spomoni, tortoni, 
             An espresso, have a cigar too, eh?
             We love you Santa Claus

A shake - shake- shake - Santa shake his butt
A tap. tap, tap, a Santa tap on his gutt
Up, up, up Rudolpho pull-a-the sled
Plop. plop. plop the reindeer now are dead!
