CHICO'S LOVE SONG
Ted Shapiro / Lee / Seeken

as rec by The Andrews Sisters w Vic Schoen & his Orch  
Sep 15th 1939


Chico is the talk of the tropics,
He's very gay with his new way of woing.
He's the new Romeo of the tropics,
Let's take a peek and see what Chico's doing;

A yellow moon is smiling down tonight on Chico,
As Chico sings in Puerto Rico, (scat).
He loves to croon his little sentimental dream song,
They always listen for his theme song, (scat).

He makes romance with his guitar
And takes the ladies for a walk;
The fair ones come from near and far
To hear his Cuban double talk.  (scat)

His mellow tune makes every senorita weaken;
When Chico sings in Puerto Rican
His sweet sonata,
There's nothing hotter!  (scat)

Chi-i-ico is the talk of the tropics,
He he he is very gay with his new way of woo-oo-ooing.
He he he's a new Romeo of the tropics, shmopics,
Apeekazen, takes a peek and see what Chico's doing;

(scat)
Chico sings his sweet sonata,
As he sings it gets much hotter,
Listen in now!

A yellow moon is smiling down tonight on Chico,
As Chico sings in Puerto Rico, (scat).
He loves to croon his little sentimental dream song,
They always listen for his theme song, (scat).

He makes romance,
And takes the ladies for a walk, a walk.
\from near and far
To hear his double talk.

(scat) makes every senorita weaken;
When Chico sings in Puerto Rican
His sweet sonata,
There's nothing hotter!  (scat)
