 PERRY COMO - Chi-Baba, Chi-Baba ( My Bambino Go to Sleep ) Lyrics

Many a year ago in old Sorrento
a certain ditty was quite the thing
Whenever a mother rocked her baby in Sorrento
this little ditty she used to sing:

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
my bambino go to sleep!

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
my bambino go to sleep!

All the stars are in the skies ready to say goodnight
can't you see your doll is sleepy, too?
Close your drowsy little eyes, mama will hold you tight
while she sings a lullaby to you:

Oh, chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
my bambino go to sleep!

[ Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa, and chi-lawa ]
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah [ la goombah! ]
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
my bambino go to sleep!

[ Chi, chi, chi-baba! ]
Chi, chi, chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah [ la goombah! ]
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
my bambino go to sleep!

All the stars are in the skies ready to say goodnight, goodnight
can't you see your doll is sleepy, too?
Close your drowsy little eyes, mama will hold you tight
while she sings a lullaby to you, ever so sweetly!

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah [ la la goombah! chi-baba! ]
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
my bambino go to sleep!

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
my bambino go to sleep!
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
g22i2056f213168pii12j
my bambino
go to sleep!
