The Peels - Juanita Banana lyrics

rate me

{spoken}

In a little quiet town

Just south of the Mexican border

There lived a lovely Juanita

A banana grower's daughter

She longed to sing at the opera

But her father laughed and made fun

Still Juanita would sing each day in the fields

As soon as her work was done

{Juanita singing lots of Ah's}

Juanita Banana

Juanita Banana

Juanita Banana

Juanita Banana

{more Ah's}

{spoken}

Juanita moved to the city

In seach of fortune & fame

It didn't take more than a couple of songs

She had won the world's acclaim

Her father back home was astounded

His Juanita Banana a star?

He burned down his trees

He moved to the city

And he bought himself a guitar

{Father singing La's & Juanita singing Ah's}
