ITALIAN GIRLS As recorded by Rod Stewart (From the 1972 Album NEVER A DULL MOMENT) [Intro]         [Verse 1] I’ve got two and more to show I was dreaming of a mobile That couldn’t be mine not without lyin’ Was I feeling kind a silly When I stepped in soakin’ beer down the cola machine? Oh stayin’ 17 Well she claimed she was a killer And she owned a floodlit villa A little aways from the main highway Oh take me  way down yonder woo [Piano Solo]                 [Verse 2] She was tall thin and tarty And she drove a Maserati Faster than sound I was heaven bound Although I must have looked a creep In my army surplus jeep Was I being too bold Before the night could get old? No no no no She proved me so wrong [Verse 3] Oh the Italian girls sometimes hold their religious habits In front of your eyes just to get you tied Ah but not my little Bella ’cause I did not have to tell her That I’d be gone with the morning sun She made me so tired woo [Interlude]                     [Bridge] She took me way way away down yonder woo            ’Til I was goin’ with the morning sun on my back woo         [Outro]           Gotta get on back there soon as I can            Take me there               And I miss the girl so bad         Oh yeah wait a minute           She broke my heart she broke my heart she broke my heart woo         Gotta get on back there soon as I can       I miss the girl I miss the girl I miss the girl so bad I was a lot better off

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque les rencontres d'un jeune homme avec des filles italiennes, décrivant avec humour et nostalgie ses aventures romantiques. Il se remémore des moments mémorables, des rencontres dans des lieux inattendus et les réticences de la jeunesse, notamment ses maladresses et son attirance pour une belle femme qui semblait à la fois séduisante et intrigante. Les filles sont représentées comme séduisantes et parfois un peu mystérieuses, éveillant des sentiments à la fois de passion et de fatigue. Le récit dépeint une quête d'amour éphémère et les regrets qui l'accompagnent, renforçant l'idée que ces instants de vie peuvent être fugaces et chargés d'émotions.
