Nineteen In Naples (album Version) - Jonathan Richman

Well when I was 19 I was insecure

Now ain't that 19

I was over intellectual that's for sure

19 in naples well

19 19 in naples

I had American money falling outta my pants

19 19

Italian train tickets fallin' outta my hands

19 in Naples

19 19 in Naples

When I was 19 I went across the sea

And I found myself in italy

Oh 19 19 in naples

Uh oh I'm walkin in an alley

Italian kids are looking at me funny

They're sorta surrounding me

And they think that maybe I got money

And they're looking at my wallet

This almost was a wrong turn for me

Well I didn't like this and I didn't like that

19 19

I was such a little brat

19 in naples

19 19 in naples Guitar

Uh oh yeah

I'm checking into the pension

It's 2 am

I'm carrying my bags

The italian guys are playing poker in their underwear

Yeah under the green light in the lobby

I'll always remember that

My big impression

Well when I was 19 I went across the pond

19 19

And I found myself in the demi monde

19 in naples yeah

19 19 in naples

All right

19 19 in naples

Yeah

19 19 in naples

19 19 in naples
