I wasn't born when this arrived
It was made by a black man that I know
This rhythm of black people, this tasty rhythm
This celebration rhythm here

Porfirio Vasquez made it, that great man
He made it with great art
And now I sing it, I sing it
When I was little, I told my dad
I want to sing, I want to play
I told my dad I want to be like you
I told my dad, I want to sing
I told my dad I want to sing, I want to play
I told my dad (I told my dad)
I want to be as good as you are
I told my dad (I told my dad)
Now I sing, now I play
And I thank my dad that I can sing
That I can play
I told my dad I want to sing
I told my dad I want to be like you
I told my dad, I told my dad, I told my dad
