Lemon Merango Tango |
LyricsMy friends and I were sitting among some lemon trees It was so relaxing Until we felt a breeze The smell of lovely lemons Came wafting through the sky And all that we could find to say Was Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi It was the Lemon Merango Tango Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi Ayi-yi-yi I'm in heaven When the Lemon tree's nearby Now if you hold the lemon Up close beside your nose It is so much sweeter Than any kind of rose This lovely lemon tango Is easy as lemon pie And if you want to sing along...sing Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi It was the Lemon Merango Tango Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi Ayi-yi-yi I'm in heaven When the Lemon tree's nearby (spoken) Oh you're singing my song, It's so beautiful. I love those Ay-yi-yi's. Everybody say Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi Louder Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi Oh that's nice but it reminds me of the lemon groves of home and all my old friends who were cut down to make a highway. It makes me so sad to think of it. But now Canada is my new home and I love it here. It's so big and has so many nice trees. Oh I feel like dancing. I want to hear a tango rhythm-Slow-Slow-quick-quick-Slow Hands clapping-Feet stomping. Oh yes!! -for you I 'll do a tango. Have a lemon it's on me! It was the Lemon Merango Tango Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi Ayi-yi-yi I'm in heaven When the Lemon tree's nearby |
