La Kukaracha

[Verse] In a cantina by the crowded street There walks a man Quick on his feet He’s got a swagger And a knowing grin A hint of trouble in the shape he’s in [Verse 2] He calls himself La Kukaracha Proud and free With tales of passion and wild debauchery Under the moon By the sea’s embrace He leaves a mark Never a trace [Chorus] Oh La Kukaracha Dancing through the night With a charm that’s hidden just out of sight Whispers of laughter and old guitars Echo through streets Down to the bars [Bridge] He’s got a secret Some folks might say A power that he wields in a daring way Ladies swoon and men step aside When La Kukaracha starts his stride [Verse 3] By the bonfire In the warm night air Stories are told of how he lays bare A life of wildness And untamed spirit La Kukaracha lives You can almost hear it [Chorus] Oh La Kukaracha Dancing through the night With a charm that’s hidden just out of sight Whispers of laughter and old guitars Echo through streets Down to the bars
