La Zitella
Peppe Barra
The Spinster
The water from the fountain
Is bitter bitter
That wasn't bitter there
That wasn't bitter there
The water from the fountain
Is bitter bitter
That wasn't bitter there
My love, I drank it
How it spins how it jumps and dances
How it spins my little doll
It would take a spinster
It would take a spinster
How it spins how it jumps and dances
How it spins my little doll
It would take a spinster
That's how youth goes
How well she carries herself
This vineyard
So will the woman be
So will the woman be
How well she carries herself
This vineyard
So will the woman be
My love when she's a spinster
How it spins how it jumps and dances
How it spins my little doll
It would take a spinster
It would take a spinster
How it spins how it jumps and dances
How it spins my little doll
It would take a spinster
That's how youth goes
And mom sent me
To the gypsies
She told me tonight
She told me tonight
And mom sent me
To the gypsies
She told me tonight
My love, they are macaroni
How it spins how it jumps and dances
How it spins my little doll
It would take a spinster
It would take a spinster
How it spins how it jumps and dances
How it spins my little doll
It would take a spinster
That's how youth goes
Marangia marangella
How yellowed
Maybe you're to blame
Maybe you're to blame
Marangia marangella
How yellowed
Maybe you're to blame
My love, the turning
How it spins how it jumps and dances
How it spins my little doll
It would take a spinster
It would take a spinster
How it spins how it jumps and dances
How it spins my little doll
It would take a spinster
That's how youth goes
When I was young
I slept all the time
Now that I've grown up
Now that I've grown up
When I was young
I slept all the time
Now that I've grown up
My love, I'm almost without
How it spins how it jumps and dances
How it spins my little doll
It would take a spinster
It would take a spinster
How it spins how it jumps and dances
How it spins my little doll
It would take a spinster
That's how youth goes
