I'm a Latin from Manhattan You can tell by my Maana I'm a Latin from Manhattan And not Havana Though I does the rhumba for yas And I call myself Dolores I was in a Broadway chorus Known as Seorita Patti Lu I can take a tambourine and whack it But with me that's just a racket I'm a hoofer from Tenth Avenue I'm a Latin from Manhattan I'm a Forty-Second Streeter I'm a Latin from Manhattan
Seorita Patti Lu Old man trouble I don't mind him You won't find him Knocking on my front door I got rhythm, I got music I got sweet dreams Who could ask for anything more? I can take her tambourine and whack it But with me that's just a racket I'm a hoofer from Tenth Avenue I'm a Latin from Manhattan I'm a Forty-Second Streeter I'm a Latin from Manhattan Seorita Patti Lu Evita!
