Hello!

I only have the lyrics for the Live version. They're a bit different
from Cabretta's, but it's almost the same. They are:

SPANISH STROLL

Hey Mr. Jim, I can see the shape you're in
got your finger on your eyebrow
and left hand on your hip
thinking that you're such a lady killer
think you're so slick!
alright, slick...

Brother Johnny, he caught a plane and he got on it
now he's a razor in the wind
and he's got a pistol in his pocket
they say the man is crazy on the West Coast
ain't no doubt about it!
let's go...
spanish stroll...

Sister Sue, tell me baby what are we gonna do
she said you take two candles
and then you burn them out
make a paper boat, "set a match to it" ("light it" on Cabretta)
and then you send it out, send it out now...

spanish stroll
spanish stroll
spanish stroll

(*) Mira aquí!
Hey Johnny! Yeah, tenth street Johnny...
We've been looking for you man...
everybody told me you had moved uptown
hey! you wanna go for a ride
I'm going uptown myself
For what?

Yeah, ain't it right?
Yeah, one time for Tito Puente, one time...
are you ready?

Yeah, of course we cannot leave out
mr. Ray Baretto

(*) In Cabretta appears the spanish strophe instead of the cursive part:

Rosita
¿dónde va con mi carro, Rosita?
Usted sabe que le quiero
pero usted me quita todo
ya me robaste mi televisión y mi radio,
ahora se quiere llevar mi carro...
no me hagas ir, Rosita,
¡ven aquí!
estése aquí al lado, por favor

That, according to my extremely free translation, means:

Rosita
¿where are you going with my car, Rosita?
you know I love you
but you take me all away
you already took my tv and my radio
now you wanna take my car...
dont make me go there, Rosita,
¡come here!
be quite, please)

I hope you can understand all this... I think I've made it a bit
difficult :)
Well, I hope your friend will sing them in a less chaotic way!
By the way, I'm working on a Willy website, (curiously named Spanish
Stroll), if you have anything to contribute, anything is welcome!
