El Mandil de Carolina

Carolina's apron
Has a painted lizard
When Carolina dances
The lizard wags its tail
Carolina Dances
Dance yes sir
Tell me who you dance with
Dance with my love

The shoe asks for half
The average asks for a shoe
A pretty little girl
She also asks for a handsome boy
Carolina Dances
Dance yes sir
Tell me who you dance with
Dance with my love

The nightingale when it sings
Put your tail between the goldfinch
I would put it in too
On a single girl
Carolina Dances
Dance yes sir
Tell me who you dance with
Dance with my love

The priest does not dance
Because he has a crown
Dance, Mr. Priest, dance
May God forgive everything
Carolina Dances
Dance yes sir
Tell me who you dance with
Dance with my love
