Riding on My Vespa
- Vespa-ajelu -

Track #6 from the When in Rome CD

Music & original Finnish lyric by Bianca Morales and Maria Parr, English lyric by Judy Lamppu, arranged by Sven Nygård


WHEN I’M RIDING ON MY VESPA
THE SUN IS SHINING AND I’M FEELING LIKE A STAR
ON MY LITTLE YELLOW VESPA
I CAN BUZZ AROUND AND PASS EACH FANCY CAR

BUSY VIA DEL CORSO LEADS ME
TO THE FAMOUS VILLA BORGHESE
THE PARK IS PAINTED GREEN
WHERE I’LL STOP AND PUT MYSELF INTO THE HAPPY SCENE

ON THE WINDING LITTLE ROADWAYS
I CAN ZIP THROUGH ALL THE TRAFFIC GOING SLOW
NEVER SAW A PLACE SO LOVELY
SPRING IS HERE AND, LOVE IS EVERYWHERE I GO

VIA DEL CORSO LEADS ME
TO THE FAMOUS VILLA BORGHESE
THE PARK IS PAINTED GREEN
GONNA PUT MYSELF RIGHT IN THE SCENE

- BREAK -

Solos: Violin, guitar, scat A + B

JACKET BILLOWING AROUND ME
AND THE WIND UPON MY FACE JUST MAKES ME SMILE
UP AHEAD THERE IS A CAFE
I’LL BE WINING, I’LL BE DINING IN AWHILE

VIA DEL CORSO LEADS ME
TO THE FAMOUS VILLA BORGHESE
THE PARK IS PAINTED GREEN
GONNA PUT MYSELF RIGHT IN THE SCENE
