I've kissed the girls of Naples,
They're pretty as can be;
I've also kissed some French girls
Who came from Paree;
The Spanish girls are lovely,
Oh, yes indeed they are,
But the ladies of Calcutta are sweeter by far.
The ladies of Calcutta will steal your heart away
And after it is stolen, you'll say,
I've kissed the girls of Naples,
I've kissed them in Paree,
But the ladies of Calcutta do something to me.
