[Verse 1]
I met a little Spanish girl on the fifth of May
A pretty señorita get down, she lived in East L.A.
Down at 155, the party's alive, there was magic in the air
The streets was rockin', poppin' and lockin', dancin' everywhere
And the people sang
[Chorus]
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
[Verse 2]
Homeboys cruisin' down the street in your low-ridin' limousine
It's the funkiest thing on wheels that I've ever seen
So we jumped inside, took a ride, the guys from the neighborhood
Tripped downtown where the people get down and it made me feel so good
Everybody sang
[Chorus]
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
[Verse 3]
From the park, we heard the music, there were people all around
Some were singin', some were dancin', we just boogied down
Everybody on the scene jammin' and the band was goin' strong
So we drank a little wine, we had a good time as we partied all night long
And the people sang
[Chorus]
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
[Outro]
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
