Managua, Nicaragua
|
- words by Albert Gamse, music by Irving Fields
|
- as recorded in New York November 15, 1946 by Guy Lombardo
|
and His Royal Canadians
|
|
Managua, Nicaragua is a beautiful town
|
You buy a hacienda for a few pesos down
|
You give it to the lady you are tryin' to win
|
But her papa doesn't let you come in
|
|
Managua, Nicaragua is a heavenly place
|
You ask a se?rita for a 'leetle' embrace
|
She answers you, "Caramba! scram-ba bambarito"
|
In Managua, Nicaragua, that's "No"
|
|
I have been to many tropic ports
|
I might include even Brooklyn
|
If you're ever feelin' out of sorts
|
I'd like to recommend a look in...
|
|
Managua, Nicaragua, what a wonderful spot
|
There's coffee and bananas and a temperature hot
|
So take a trip and on a ship go sailing away
|
Across the agua to Managua, Nicaragua, ol?br> Ol? ol?br> Across the agua to Managua, Nicaragua, ol?br>

|
|
Every day is made for play and fun
|
'Cause every day is fiesta
|
And they work from twelve o'clock to one
|
Minus an hour for siesta
|

Managua, Nicaragua, what a wonderful spot

There's coffee and bananas and a temperature hot

So take a trip and on a ship go sailing away

Across the agua to Managua, Nicaragua, ol?br> Ol? ol?br> Across the agua to Managua, Nicaragua, ol?br>
