A lovely senorina from old Italy
Came to our shores and raised a family
She learned from her mother that cooking was an art
And when you came to dinner this is how her meal would start
She brought us
Antipasta minestrone linguine marinara
Pastacholi gorgonzole squigini bakalava
Ravioli pizza roll it really was a treat
Then she'd say Manja manja Eat my children eat
Hey
Mama Mama Rosa
We love the way you look
Ma ma ma Mama Mama Rosa
And we love the way you cook
Ma ma ma ma Mama Mama Rosa
We love your macaroni
But Mama Mama Rosa
Where's the spumoni
Manja manja manja manja
But she brought
Chicken cacciatore and a dish of scallopini
Seven kinds of sauces on a plate of spagatini
Half a dozen courses of her home made sazich
Then she said Manja manja Eat my children eat
Hey
Mama Mama Rosa
We love the way you look
Oh Mama Mama Mama Rosa
And we love the way you cook
Ma ma ma ma Mama Mama Rosa
We love your macaroni
But Mama Mama Rosa
Where's the spumoni
Manja manja manja manja
But she brought
Pears and peaches pomegranates a slice of provolone
Fresh spinoki artichokes rigata with pinole
Candy maraschino with some chocolatino sweet
Then she said Manja manja Eat my children eat
Hey

Mama Mama Rosa
Now bring us our desert
