Today was a good day,
I'll tell you why We found this little place that made us both
smile My girl and me
The families all walked hand in hand
Through the streets with the night still
Young under the setting sun We took to our seats
The tables were dressed in all white linen
cotton And the silver work glistened as we
sat down and listened to the waitress girl
The lanterns above gave away a warm glow
And we wished away the night with a glass of red hot tea
Martina Franca, Martina Franca, Martina Franca
She was love at first sight,
it tasted so right My love affair grew and
from then on I knew that we'd meet again
So when the time came she drove me back again To the place
where I first fell in love with a dish that shared the same name
At first I had to fix my ear as my hearing had gone
After I jumped in the pool to keep cool for the afternoon sun
With my head in her lap she drove me back to health
And thank God she was there I loved
her more than both in the restaurant
Martina Franca, Martina Franca, Martina Franca
Martina Franca, Martina Franca, Martina Franca
Martina Franca, Martina Franca, Martina Franca
