When In Rome Lyrics - Bill Evans

When on foreign shores I am 

Very truly yours I am 

But if inclined to play I am 

Sweetheart, that's the way I am 

When in Spain for reasons I don't explain 

I remain enjoying a brew 

Don't deplore my fondness for fundador 

You know how a fundador can lead to a few 

And baby when in Rome I do as the Romans do 

If per chance I'm saying farewell to France 

And romance drops in from the blue 

Cherchez l'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 lied to you prettily 

Oh don't think of me bitterly 

But know that I'm true

Except now and then in Rome 

I get that old yearn in Rome 

And naturally when in Rome 

I do as the Romans do
