She comes from an Italian artist family; her father Giuseppe was a well-known accordion player, her mother, Maria Valente, a musical clown. She had three siblings, of whom Silvio Francesco was also active in show business.
In 1952 she married juggler Erik van Aro (Gerd Eric Horst Scholz). He recognized her talent and accompanied her in her initial years of worldwide success, although they later divorced. In 1953, she made her first recordings with Kurt Edelhagen. Soon afterwards she achieved great success with songs like "Malagueña", "The Breeze and I", and "Dreh dich nicht um" with the Werner Müller orchestra.

Je chante
Caterina Valente Lyrics
Je chante, je chante soir et matin
Je chante sur mon chemin
Je chante, je vais de ferme en château
Je chante pour du pain, je chante pour de l'eau
Je couche la nuit sur l'herbe des bois
Les mouches ne me piquent pas
Je suis heureux, j'ai tout et j'ai rien
Je chante sur mon chemin
Les elfes divinités de la nuit
Les elfes couchent dans mon lit
La lune se faufile à pas de loup
Dans le bois, pour danser, pour danser avec nous
Je sonne chez la comtesse aujourd'hui
Personne, elle est partie
Elle n'a laissé qu'un plat d'riz pour moi
Me dit un laquais chinois
Je chante, je chante soir et matin
Je chante sur mon chemin
Je chante, je vais de ferme en château
Je chante pour du pain, je chante pour de l'eau
Je couche la nuit sur l'herbe des bois
Les mouches ne me piquent pas
Je suis heureux, j'ai tout et j'ai rien
Je chante sur mon chemin
Je chante sur mon chemin
Je chante, je vais de ferme en château
Je chante pour du pain, je chante pour de l'eau
Je couche la nuit sur l'herbe des bois
Les mouches ne me piquent pas
Je suis heureux, j'ai tout et j'ai rien
Je chante sur mon chemin
Les elfes divinités de la nuit
Les elfes couchent dans mon lit
Dans le bois, pour danser, pour danser avec nous
Je sonne chez la comtesse aujourd'hui
Personne, elle est partie
Elle n'a laissé qu'un plat d'riz pour moi
Me dit un laquais chinois
Je chante, je chante soir et matin
Je chante sur mon chemin
Je chante, je vais de ferme en château
Je chante pour du pain, je chante pour de l'eau
Je couche la nuit sur l'herbe des bois
Les mouches ne me piquent pas
Je suis heureux, j'ai tout et j'ai rien
Je chante sur mon chemin
