Lyrics for Song: Italian Girls
Lyrics for Album: Never a Dull Moment
IÂ’ve got two and more to show
I was dreaming of a mobile
that couldnÂ’t be mine not without lyinÂ’
Was I feeling kind a silly
when I stepped in soakinÂ’ beer down the cola machine
Oh, stayinÂ’ seventeen
Well she claimed she was a killer
and she owned a flood lit villa
a little aways from the main highway
Oh take me way down yonder
She was tall, thin and tarty
and she drove a Maserati
faster than sound
I was heaven bound
Although I must have looked a creep
in my army surplus jeep
Was I being too bold
before the night could get old
No, no, no, no
She proved me so wrong
Oh the Italian girls sometimes hold their religious habits
in front of your eyes, just to get you tied
Ah but not my little Bella ‘cause I did not have to tell her
IÂ’d rather you go with the morning sun, she made me so tired
She took me way, way, away down yonder
till I was gone with the morning sun on my back
Gotta get on back there soon as I can
Take me there
And I miss the girl so bad
She broke my heart
Gotta get on back there soon as I can
I miss the girl, I miss the girl, I miss the girl so bad
I was a lot better off

Italian Girls
Italian Girls stands as a vibrant song in Rod Stewart's early solo discography, appearing on his 1972 album Never a Dull Moment. The track captures the singer's signature blend of rock and soul, showcasing the energetic vocal delivery that would define his transition from the Faces to a successful solo career. Released during a period of significant commercial growth, the song reflects Stewart's ability to craft catchy, rhythm-driven pop-rock anthems. While often overshadowed by his later ballads, this recording highlights his dynamic stage presence and knack for upbeat storytelling. The album itself remains a cornerstone of his catalog, bridging the gap between his blues-rock roots and the polished pop sound that would dominate his subsequent work. Italian Girls remains a testament to Stewart's enduring appeal and his capacity to deliver spirited, memorable performances. |
