Un Verano En N.Y.

If you want to have fun
with charm and grace
you just have to live a summer in NYC

your whimsical friends lift you up
I know they go to the neighborhoods
or to Bear Mountain
then to the life of the port
or to the sparkling ocean beach
the party of the little mango
or through the puddle in a splash

the Fourth of July
the Puerto Rican parade
all of this seems like a dream
and they enjoy it with caution
parties with flowers and hot peppers
there in Central Park
and see that tradition never dies
it's the feast of Saint John

your uncle Barreto told me
a summer in NYC
there you have a better time
a summer...
you go to the feast of Saint John
a summer....
a summer...
to Bear Mountain
a summer....
your whimsical friends
a summer....
who never want to stop
a summer....
