| | Chi-Baba, Chi-Baba ( My Bambino Go to Sleep ) Lyrics Artist(Band):Perry Como
a certain ditty was quite the thing Whenever a mother rocked her baby in Sorrento this little ditty she used to sing: Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa my bambino go to sleep! Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa my bambino go to sleep! All the stars are in the skies ready to say "goodnight" can't you see your doll is sleepy, too? Close your drowsy little eyes, mama will hold you tight while she sings a lullaby to you: Oh, chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa my bambino go to sleep! ( Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa, and chi-lawa ) Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah ( la goombah! ) Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa my bambino go to sleep!

All the stars are in the skies ready to say "goodnight, goodnight" can't you see your doll is sleepy, too? Close your drowsy little eyes, mama will hold you tight while she sings a lullaby to you, ever so sweetly! Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah ( la la goombah! chi-baba! ) Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa my bambino go to sleep! Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa my bambino go to sleep!

Review about Chi-Baba, Chi-Baba ( My Bambino Go to Sleep ) old time favorites | Reviewer: margo | 11/23/2008 My "special needs" daughter loves this song....and has been playing it over and over for two weeks now. I use it to get a smile out of her when she gets frustrated in her daily life. It makes her laugh....I wonder if she thinks it's about a chihuahua named Bambino. Can anyone tell me what the Italian lyrics translate to in English? I thought my mom made it up | Reviewer: eileen | 6/18/2008 I was born in '68, the youngest of 8 children. My mom used to sing me to sleep with this song. 20 + years later I sang it to my babies. Later yet I sang it back to her at her bedside as she got ready to go home to be with the Lord. My brothers and sisters never remembered hearing her sing it and I finally thought she had made it up. (I didn't quite have all the words down, I wondered how "Aunt Jemima" syrup fit into the lyrics!) I'm so glad to find it actually was a song from her era and feel even more special that in such a big family, she saved this lullaby for me! My Daddy Used to sing this to me! | Reviewer: Wendy Wilson | 1/1/2008 I LOVE this song!! My Daddy used to rock me at night and sing this to me! Of course, he substituted "daddy" for "mama"! I knew it was from "back in the day," but I had no idea Perry Como had done this song and that he was singing the real lyrics!! To all Dads everywhere...sing to your children! Dad didn't have a great voice, but I didn't hear that. All I heard was LOVE!!
