Louis Prima - Felicia No Capicia

I took Felicia to Las Vegas is my story
She spent the weekend eating chicken cacciatore
But when I said "I'd like ta kiss ya"
Felicia no capicia

The way she gambled down the tables wasn't funny
You should have seen the way she found to lose my money
But when I said "I'd like ta kiss ya"
Felicia no capicia

She understood (she understood) she heard me good (she heard me good)
When I said "have some real imported cheese"
But when I said (but when I said) "give me a squeeze" ("give me a squeeze")
You'd think I was talking Japanese

She never heard about the birds and bees
While she was half (?) And half Calabrese
You want to see the things I bought her
I took her out and spent my money just like water
But when I said "I'd like ta kiss ya"
Felicia no capicia

No, she didn't understand, no she didn't understand

Hmm, she heard me fine (she heard me fine)
When I said "dine" (when I said "dine")
Then she drunk a half a case of wine
But when I said (but when I said)
"Come on let's spoon" ("Come on let's spoon")
You'd think that I was asking for the moon
That chick was really as crazy as a loone

She was half Sicilian and (?)
I tried to make her feel relaxy
It cost me 97 dollars for the taxi
But when I said "I'd like ta kiss ya"
Felicia no capicia

She said "Luigi, let's get married"
And Luigi
No capici
