"Adios Senorita" lyrics

"Adios Senorita"

I thought I'd dilly-dally
So I was strollin' down Tin Can Alley
By a street market place, I came face-to-face
With an angel down in Harlem

Adios (Adios) senorita
Adios (Adios) bonita, mamacita
Because I've got to be strong
'Cause I've got to get on home
To my sweet one, my sweet little darling

Oh, but suddenly we started to meringuein' [?]
To the rhythm of those garbage tops just bangin'
Someone yelled out, "Fresh bananas" to a distant bongo drum
And we danced, Lord, we danced, until the darkness hit the sun

And her tears fell like rain
When she saw me get on the train
Leavin' Spanish Harlem

But I cried out adios (Adios) senorita
Adios (Adios) bonita, mamacita
Gotta get home, Lord, now

(Adios) Adi, Adios
(Adios)

Missed the A-Train
Because my baby's waiting for me, Mr. A-Train
You see, my roof is kinda leakin'
And it's lookin' just like rain
And my supper's on the table
And she's on that windowpane

Adios (Adios) senorita
Adios (Adios) bonita, mamacita

Maybe maƱana but not today
I got to see my baby, Lord, I got to be on my way (Adios)
Hasta la vista (Adios), senorita (Adios)
