Dean Martin Picture
Dean Martin(born Dino Paul Crocetti, June 7, 1917 – December 25, 1995) American actor and singer, couldn't read music, and yet recorded more than 100 albums and 600 songs, racking up major hits such as "That's Amore", "Volare", "You're Nobody Till Somebody Loves You" and his signature tune "Everybody Loves Somebody". Besides being the ladies' man counterpart of Jerry Lewis in a series of comedies, besides being a ratpacker, Dean Martin, in his long variety show run on NBC, often seemed to be dead drunk on national TV. The fact that America saw his show as charming and wholesome just the same is a testament not only to the culture of the time but to Martin's own great charm. Dean was well known as a family man and his "drinking" was just an act. It used to bother Frank Sinatra (who was a big drinker) that Dean went home early to be with his wife and kids and not go hitting the bars with him.

Bella Bella Bambina Lyrics

Dean Martin

Bella bella bambina
Bella bella bambina
Mandolinas are playing songs of love they are saying
Bella bella bambina
Lips as sweet as ervina
Bella bella bambina
Bella bambina be mine
Violets from the street vendor for the one I adore
So that she will remember I am hers evermore
Kisses thrilling and tender tell me as never before
All my love I surrender true my bella amore
Bella bella bambina
Bella bella bambina
Mandolins are playing songs of love they are saying
Bella bella bambina
Lips as sweet as ervina
Bella bella bambina
Bella bambina be mine
Chapel bells will be ringing when she whispers si si
How my heart will be singing love's sweet melody
Skies above will be bringing sunshine and gladness to me
Shoes and rice they'll be flinging what a day it will be
Bella bella bambina
Bella bella bambina
Mandolins are playing songs of love they are saying
Bella bella bambina
Lips as sweet as ervina
Bella bella bambina
Bella bambina be mine
(Ma Come Beli) Bella Bimba
Ma come beli bella bimba, bella bimba, bella bimba
Ma come beli bella bimba, bella bimba, bella bimba
(Ma come beli bella bimba, bella bimba, bella bimba
Ma come beli bella bimba, bella bimba, bella bimba)
Birds always sing, bells always ring
Whether it's summer or winter or spring
Be like the birds, just add the words
And sing this happy song
Ma come beli bella bimba, bella bimba, bella bimba
Ma come beli bella bimba, bella bimba, bella bimba
(Ma come beli bella bimba, bella bimba, bella bimba
Ma come beli bella bimba, bella bimba, bella bimba)
Don't ever cry, I'll tell you why
You can't see the sky with a tear in your eye
Be like the
