Laroo laroo

lilli bolero,

laroo laroo

lilli bolero . . .

That's a magic sayin'

That I heard one day in Napoli;

When a fortune teller

In a dim lit cellar

said to me . . .

"You say laroo lilli bolero;

And just like that,

Quick as an arrow!

You'll find the girl who's meant for you."

And sure enough it all came true,

Laroo laroo lilli bolero!

When a fortune teller

In a dim lit cellar

said to me . . .

"You say laroo lilli bolero;

And just like that,

Quick as an arrow!

You'll find the girl who's meant for you."

And sure enough it all came true,

Laroo laroo lilli bolero!

Laroo laroo . . .

lilli bolero!
