Italians have called me paisan
Blacks have called me brother
I broke up with my woman
And now I need another
Italians have called me paisan
Blacks have called me brother
I have my own philosophy
And do not need another
Italians have called me paisan
Blacks have called me Brother
I have a nice girlfriend and
do not need another
Italians have called me paisan
Blacks have called me brother
I have a nice lady friend
and do not need another
