[Refrain] She’s a Latin from Manhattan.
I can tell by her “Mañana”
She’s a Latin from Manhattan, but not Havana.
Though she does the rhumba for us,
And she calls herself Dolores,
She was in a Broadway chorus known as Suzy Donahue.

She can take her tambourine and whack it,
But to her it’s just a racket.
She’s a hoofer from Tenth Avenue.
She’s a Latin from Manhattan.
She’s a Forty-Second Streeter.
She’s a Latin from Manhattan, Señorita Donahue.
