South America, Take It Away 歌詞
South America, Take It Away - Mel Tormé
Up here in the land of the hot-dog stand
The atom bomb and the Good Humor Man
We think our South American neighbors are grand
We love 'em to beat the band
South America baba-loo baba-loo ay-ee-eh baba-loo
One favor you can do
One favor you can do
You beautiful lands below
Don't know what you began
To put it plainly I'm tired of shakin'
To that Pan-American plan
Take back your Conga ay your Samba ay your Rumba ay-yi-yi
I can't keep shakin' ay my Rumba ay any longer ay-yi-yi
Now maybe Latins ay in their middles ay are built stronger
Ay-yi-yi
But all this makin' to the quakin' and this shakin' with the shakin'
Leaves me achin' ole
Then you shake and you put it here
Then you shake and you put it here
That's enough that's enough
Take it back my spine's outta-whack
There's a great click-clack
In the back of my sacroilliac
Take back your Conga ay your Samba ay your Rumba ay-yi-yi
Why can't you send us ay a less strenu- ay -ous number ay-yi-
Yi
South America take it away
That's enough that's enough
Take it back my spine's outta-whack
There's a great click-clack
In the back of my sacroilliac
Take back your Conga ay your Samba ay your Rumba ay-yi-yi
South America take it away
Take it away
Take it away
