Lou Monte - Italian Jingle Bells download

But you know I have noticed having lived in Philadelphia. All the Italian Americans use this cutting off words technique to try to connect to their roots, and as much as I love the attempt, I feel it falls short. Some friends from Naples may not get this or some might. The dialect if you will that I associate most is Lucano. I am not trying to be rude when I talk about this but it is an observation and conversations with the old Italians (the ones from the years of lead in Italy)

This is rather "Neapolitan" Jingle Bells, not Italian - this is as Italian as maybe Swedish would be English. I understand maybe 4 words of what he sings.

What are they lyrics to the song

I loved Lou Monte as a kid! Only had one of his records, I played the heck out of it.

My city is so Italian, the grocery stores play this in December.

A friend of mine from Italy gave me the lyrics. I do speak a good amount of standard Italian though. :)
