Lyrics
Cuanto le gusta, le gusta, le gusta
Le gusta, le gusta, le gusta, le gusta
Cuanto le gusta, le gusta
Le gusta, le gusta, le gusta, le gusta
Chorus
We gotta get goin’, where we goin’?
And what-a we gonna do?
We’re on our way to “some where”
The three of us and you
What’ll we see there, who will be there
What’ll be the big surprise?
There may be senoritas
With dark and flashing eyes
We’re on our way, pack up your pack
And if we stay, we won’t come back
How can we go, we haven’t got a dime
But we’re goin’
And we’re gonna have a happy time
Patter
Now someone said
They just came back from somewhere
A friend of mine that I don’t even know
He said there’s lots of fun if we can get there
If that’s the case, that’s the place
The place we want to go
Chorus
We gotta get goin’, where we goin’?
And what-a we gonna do?
We’re on our way to “some where”
The three of us and you
What’ll we see there, who will be there
What’ll be the big surprise?
There may be caballeros
With dark and flashing eyes
I’ll take a train, you take a boat
I’ll take a plane, you ride the goat
Oh, we don’t care, we’ll either walk or climb
But we’re goin’
And we’re gonna have a happy time
Cuanto le gusta, le gusta, le gusta
Le gusta, le gusta, le gusta, le gusta
Cuanto le gusta, le gusta
Le gusta, le gusta, le gusta, le gusta
