Chi-Baba, Chi-Baba (My Bambino Go To Sleep) Songtext / Lyric

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

An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa

My bambino go to sleep



Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa

An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa

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

An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa

My bambino go to sleep



Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-baba

Chi-baba, chi-wawa, an' chi-lawa



Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa

An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa

My bambino go to sleep



Chi, chi, chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa

An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa

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

An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa

My bambino go to sleep



Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa

My bambino go to sleep

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa

My bambino go to sleep
