When In Rome
(Cy Coleman/Carolyn Leigh)
When in Spain
For reasons I don't explain
I remain enjoying a brew
Don't deplore my fondness
For fundadoor
You know how a fundadoor
Can lead to a few
And baby when in Rome
I do as the Romans do
If per chance
I'm saying farewell to friends
And romance
Drops in from the blue
Share amour
I beg of you
Please endure
My taking a brief detour
With somebody new
It's just that when in Rome
I do as the Romans do
And though from Italy
I lie to you prettily
Don't think of me bitterly
You know that I'm true
'Cept now & then in Rome
I get that old yen in Rome
Well naturally then in Rome
I do as the Romans do
If I cried happily
Best wishes from Naples-y
Don't cable me snappily
You know that I'm true
'Cept now & then in Rome
In somebody's den in Rome
Well pussycat den in Rome
I do as the Romans
Disregard the signs & the omens
When in Rome
I do as the Romans do
When I'm in Rome
And don't come home
I just do
What the Romans do
I do as the Romans
When in Spain
For reasons I don't explain
I remain enjoying a brew
Don't deplore my fondness
For fundadoor
You know how a fundadoor
Can lead to a few
And baby when in Rome
I do as the Romans do
If per chance
I'm saying farewell to friends
And romance
Drops in from the blue
Share amour
I beg of you
Please endure
My taking a brief detour
With somebody new
It's just that when in Rome
I do as the Romans do
And though from Italy
I lie to you prettily
Don't think of me bitterly
You know that I'm true
'Cept now & then in Rome
I get that old yen in Rome
Well naturally then in Rome
I do as the Romans do
If I cried happily
Best wishes from Naples-y
Don't cable me snappily
You know that I'm true
'Cept now & then in Rome
In somebody's den in Rome
Well pussycat den in Rome
I do as the Romans
Disregard the signs & the omens
When in Rome
I do as the Romans do
When I'm in Rome
And don't come home
I just do
What the Romans do
I do as the Romans
