Hey, the faucet she is dripping and the fence, she's falling down

My pocket needs some money, so I can't go into town

My brother isn't working and my sister doesn't care

The car, she needs a motor so I can't go anywhere


Manana, manana, manana is soon enough for me


My mother's always working, she is working very hard

But every time she looks for me I'm sleeping in the yard

My mother thinks I'm lazy and maybe she is right

I'll go to work, manana but I gotta sleep tonight


Manana, manana, manana is soon enough for me


Oh, once I had some money but I gave it to my friend

He said he'd pay me double, it was only for a lend

But he said a little later, the horse, she was so slow

Why he give the horse my money is something I don't know


Manana, manana, manana is soon enough for me


My brother took a suitcase and he went away to school

My father said he only learned to be a silly fool

My father said that I should learn to make a chilly pot

But then I burned the house down, the chilly, she was too hot


Manana, manana, manana is soon enough for me
