Bocce Gallup and
Maria are keeping company
He comes around to see her
every night
When he wants to make the woo
There's a place he takes her to
You can see them
when the moon is shining bright
Bocce Gallup makes
love on the stoop
Because Maria has a bigger family
Bacigalup makes love on the stoop
On the step he's full of
the pep with his Maria
Our mama's in the kitchen,
our sister's in the hall
Our brother's in the parlor,
there ain't no room at all
So Bacigalup makes love on the stoop
It's the only place
where he can be alone
That waitress Angelina,
with her he used to neck
But every time he'd kiss her,
she'd put it on the check
So watch her go look,
makes love on the stoop
It's the only place where he can be
alone
You've heard of Josefina,
who made the neighbors yell?
Well, Bocce was the fella
who made her push the bell.
So Bocce got up,
makes love on the stoop.
It's the only place
where he can be alone.
Now he had a girl, Felicia.
She always told him no.
Maria, she capisce,
but they got no place to go
So Bacigalo makes love on a stoop
It's the only place
where he can be alone
And now that they are married,
you'd think he'd do okay
But seventeen bambinos are
always in the way
They're in the attic,
the garage, the nursery
The bedroom, the bathroom, the storeroom
The living room, dining room, dining room, kitchen, the pantry, the laundry,
the basement, the study, the parlor, the den, and the hall.
Hobaretto! Everywhere!
And now Maria's roly -poly
from too much ravioli.
And things are getting mighty tough,
the stoop ain't big enough.
So Bacigalup will have
to build the largest stoop.
Cause it's the only place
where he can be alone.
Thanks for watching!
