* 4-bar intro

* Chorus Meglio sta sera, baby, go, go , go
Or as we natives say, "Va subito."

* Verse 1 If you're ever gonna kiss me,
It had better be tonight
While the mandolins are playing and stars are bright.
If you�ve anything to tell me,
It had better be tonight
Or somebody else may tell me
And whisper the words just right.

* Repeat chorus

* Verse 2 For this poor Americano
Who knows little of your speech,
Be a nice Italiano and start to teach.
Show me how in old Milano
Lovers hold each other tight,
But, I warn you sweet paisano,
It had better be tonight.

* Repeat chorus
