La Cucaracha 1934

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 16 Jun 2005

Soldiers marching down the highway,
here they come into the village.
See the people run to meet them,
they don't come to harm and pillage.
Flirting with the pretty women,
shawls and cigarettes they bring.
Guns and war are now forgotten,
hear the happy soldiers sing.

La Cucaracha, La Cucaracha,
all is fair in love and war;
La Cucaracha, La Cucaracha,
Senoritas they adore.
La Cucaracha, La Cucaracha,
when the moon is high above;
La Cucaracha, La Cucaracha,
Then it's time to think of love.

La Cucaracha, La Cucaracha,
all is fair in love and war;
La Cucaracha, La Cucaracha,
Senoritas they adore.
La Cucaracha, La Cucaracha,
when the moon is high above;
La Cucaracha, La Cucaracha,
Then it's time to think of love.
