Caravan petrol.
Caravan petrol.
Caravan petrol.
Caravan petrol.
Caravan.....
Canta Napoli.
Napoli petrolifera.
Eh eh.
Mm'aggio affittato nu camello,
mm'aggio accattato nu turbante,
nu turbante â Rinascente
cu 'o pennacchio russo e blu.
Cu 'o fiasco 'mmano e 'o tammurriello
cerco 'o ppetrolio americano
mentre abballano 'e beduine,
mentre cantano 'e ttribbù.
Comme si' bello
a cavallo a stu camello,
cu 'o binocolo a tracolla,
cu 'o turbante e 'o narghilè.
Gué, si' curiuso
mentre scave stu pertuso.
Scordatello, nun è cosa,
ccá, 'o ppetrolio, nun ce sta.
Allah! Allah! Allah!
Ma chi t''ha ffatto fa'?
Comme si' bello
a cavallo a stu camello,
cu 'o binocolo a tracolla,
cu 'o turbante e 'o narghilè.
Cu 'o fiasco 'mmano e cu 'o camello,
cu 'e gguardie 'nnanze e 'a folla arreto,
'rrevutá faccio Tuleto,
nun se pò cchiù cammena'.
Jammo, è arrivato 'o Pazzariello,
s'è travestuto 'a Menelicche.
'Mmesca 'o ppepe cu 'o ttabbacco.
Ma chi e' st' Alí Babbá?
Comme si' bello
a cavallo a stu camello,
cu 'o binocolo a tracolla,
cu 'o turbante e 'o narghilè.
Gué, si' curiuso
mentre scave stu pertuso.
Scordatello, nun è cosa,
ccá, 'o ppetrolio, nun ce sta.
Comme si' bello
a cavallo a stu camello...
