Parody: Rags To Riches (Live at the Sahara Hotel, Las Vegas, NV - April 1964) Lyrics

Thank you very much
I′d like to have you meet my special material writer
Mr. Ralph Sharon at the piano ladies and gentlemen
He wrote a parody tonight on Rags to Riches
We're going to try it out, are you sure about this Ralph?
Yeah, what?

Now just because my name is Tony
Some folks expect Italian songs
Though I′m fond of macaroni
I know where it, belongs
I've never been to Old Sorento
Or even looked at sunny Rome
I'm just a Latin from Manhattan
New York′s my home
Now Venice and Naples don′t mean much to me
I swing in Vegas, not Sicily
I go for pizza. But no, don't you beatzza for me
So please relax and sip your vino
Enjoy your, that′s pretty good, enjoy your life, the good book says
Thank you Ralph
But just like Frank and Vic and Dino
At heart, I'm Calabrese
