Lyrics

On the hottest day of the year
He rounds the corner, the kids all cheer
(Yeah!)
It\'s the Mexican ice cream man
Selling his Paletas to all he can
He’s Paletero
He’s el Paletero
He’s el Paletero
Making his dinero
Selling all his ice creams
to todo los chiquillos
Oye, my friend
Can you hear the sounds of the weekend
Oye, my friend
Don’t miss your chance
Ven aca Paletero man
Shuffling down the street
Dancing to the radio’s transistor beat
Will he have the flavor that we all love?
Chocolata, y vanilla, hope we get us some
From the Paletero
He’s el Paletero Man
He’s el Paletero
Making his dinero
Selling all his ice creams
to todo los chiquillos
Oye, my friend
Can you hear the sounds of the weekend
Oye, my friend
Don’t miss your chance
Ven aca Paletero Man (x2)
(oh Yeah!)
Yo quiero chocolata
Yo quiero de sandia
Yo quiero de Jamaica
Yo quiero de vanilla
Yo quiero de pina
Yo quiero de pepino
Yo quiero the limon
Ay que sabor!!!
Yo quiero de galleta
Yo quiero the melon
Yo quiero de cafe
Y dos de platano
Yo quiero the Horchata
Yo quiero de guayaba
Yo quiero tamarindo
Los sabors ay que lindos
Oye, my friend
Can you hear the sounds of the weekend
Oye, my friend
Don’t miss your chance
Ven aca Paletero man
I’ll lend you 50 cents
You scream, I scream, we all scream for ice cream
There’s enough for our whole street
Always enough for anyone who meets the
Paletero
He’s el Paletero Man
He’s el Paletero
Making his dinero
Selling all his ice creams
to todo los chiquillos
Oye, my friend
Can you hear the sounds of the weekend
Oye, my friend
Don’t miss your chance
Ven aca Paletero man
