"From Alto Cedro, I go to Marcane,
I get to Cueto, I head for Mayari."
(3X)
"The love that I'm feeling,
Cannot be denied,
I want you all over,
It's something I can't hide.
"Johnnie and Chan Chan,
Are playing in the sand,
Johnnie shakes her sifter,
He wants to be her man.
"'I see a friendly tree trunk,
I want to sit me down,
Clear out the path, please,
And I will stay around.'
"From Alto Cedro, I go to Marcane,
I get to Cueto, I head for Mayari."
