Pachuco

I don't know how you dare
To dress like that
And go out... like that.

In my time everything was elegant
No long-haired and no rock.

Hey dad, you were a pachuco,
they scolded you too.
Hey dad, you danced mambo,
you have to remember it.

I don't know how they dare
To dress like that
And go out like that.

In my time all women
Were serious, there was no punk.

Hey dad, you were a pachuco,
they scolded you too.
Hey dad, you danced mambo,
you have to remember it.

I don't know how they dare
To dress like that
And go out like that.

And I remember:
My generation was
decent and very formal.

Hey dad, you were a pachuco,
they scolded you too.
Hey dad, you danced mambo,
you have to remember it.
