Texty: Perry Como. Caterina.

Caa-taa-reena, O' Ho Ho!
When we kiss, Purdy Miss, Purdy Miss,
I'm in ecstasy! ( Si, Si, Si Si! )

Caterina, O' Ho, Ho Ho! ( O' Ho, Ho Ho! )
But when we kiss, Purdy Miss, Purdy Miss,
Are you thinkin' of me? ( Are you thinkin' of me? )

Caa-taa-reena! Ha, Ha, Ha! ( Ha, Ha, Ha! )
Just how long is the list, is the list,
Of the lips you kissed?
O' How happy my heart would be,
If I knew that you loved just me,
Say it's true, say ya do,

Caterina!

< repeat all verses to end >

Say it's true ( Say it's true! )
Say you do ( Say you do! )
Caa-taa-ree ( Caa-taa-ree, Caa-taa-ree, Caa-taa-ree ) na!
