Ti avevo detto,
dal primo appuntamento,
'e nun purta' nisciuno appriesso a te...
Invece mo nu frato,
na sora, na nepote...
sola nun staje na vota
ascimmo sempre a tre!
E mi hai promesso
"Domani chi lo sa...
vengo io soltanto...
soltanto con mamma'!"
Io, mammeta e tu...
passiammo pe' Tuledo,
nuje annanze e mammeta arreto...
Io mammeta e tu...
Sempre appriesso,
cose 'e pazze
chesta vene pure 'o viaggio 'e nozze...
Jamm'o cinema, o abballa'...
si cercammo 'e ce 'a squaglia',
comm'a nu carabbiniere
chella vene a ce afferra'... Ah... Ah...
ma, 'nnammurato,
so' rassignato
Non reagisco più...
Io, mammeta e tu!...
Io, mammeta e tu!...
Ma San Gennaro m'aveva fatto 'a grazia
ll'ata matina
nun ll'ha fatta aiza'
Teneva ll'uocchie 'e freve,
pareva ca schiattava,
io quase mme credevo
d'asci' sulo cu te...
Nu filo 'e voce,
pero', truvaje mamma'
"Da 'a piccerella
ve faccio accumpagna'..."
Io, soreta e tu...
Jamm'o bar 'o Chiatamone
"Vuo' 'o cuppetto o vuo' 'o spumone?"
"Chello ca costa 'e cchiu'!"
Pe' ricordo 'e 'sta jurnata,
dint'a villa, ce hanno fatt'a foto...
Vuo' 'o pallone, vuo' 'o babba'
nun se fida 'e cammena'...
guardo a essa, guardo 'o mare...
sto' penzanno 'e ce 'a mena'... Ah... Ah...
ma, 'nnammurato,
só rassignato
nun ve veco cchiu'...
Mammeta, soreta e tu...
Mammeta, soreta e tu..
Jamm'o cinema, o abballa'...
si cercammo 'e ce 'a squaglia',
comm'a nu carabbiniere
chella vène a ce afferrá... Ah... Ah...
tu mm'e 'nguajato...
me sposo a n'ata,
nun ve veco cchiù...
Mammeta, soreta e tu...
pateto, frateto e tu...
nonneta, zieta,
pateto, frateto,
nonneta, soreta, e tu.
nonneta, soreta, e tu
