Jonathan Richman - Nineteen in Naples lyrics

Well when I was 19 I was insecure
Now ain't that 19
I was over intellectual, that's for sure
19 in naples, well 19, 19 in naples
I had American money falling outta my pants
19, 19
Italian train tickets fallin' outta my hands
19 in Naples 19, 19 in Naples
When I was 19 I went across the sea
And I found myself in italy
Oh, 19, 19 in naples
Uh oh, I'm walkin in an alley
Italian kids are looking at me funny
They're sorta surrounding me
And they think that maybe I got money
And they're looking at my wallet
This almost was a wrong turn for me
Well I didn't like this and
I didn't like that 19, 19
I was such a little brat 19 in naples
19, 19 in naples, Guitar uh oh yeah
I'm checking into the "pension" it's 2 am
I'm carrying my bags
The italian guys are playing
Poker in their underwear
Yeah under the green light in the lobby
I'll always remember that my big impression
Well, when I was 19 I went across the pond
19, 19 and I found myself in the demi monde
19 in naples yeah 19 19 in naples
All right 19 19 in naples
Yeah 19 19 in naples
19 19 in naples
