Текст песни Big Italian Rose

She was riding on the airline leafing through their magazine

They said, "We'll fly you to the homeland that you have never seen"

Smiling tourists in the picture back in sunny Italy

Said she, "These pretty people don't look anything like me!"

CHORUS:

"I'm a big Italian woman and I want the world to see

All the big Italian women who look just like me

You can take your slender models and their Fifth Avenue clothes

But you'll never find a flower like the big Italian rose!"

Well, the more she thought about it, the more it made her mad

How they make you feel so ugly, they make you feel so bad

Sell you junk food and booze then make you diet till you're dead

She sat and wrote a letter and this is what it said:

CHORUS

"Well, I'm nearly fifty-seven, my hair is turning gray

The dress I wore at twenty I cannot wear today

Just an ordinary woman and it sure would make me glad

Just for once to see someone like me in your ad."

CHORUS

Three weeks later came an answer, from New York it was sent

Said, "We'd like to take your picture for our next advertisement."

Soon magazines across the nation in a prominent place

Showed a big Italian woman with a smile on her face.

CHORUS
