Manama - Peggy Lee

The faucet it is dripping and the fence is falling down

My pocket needs some money so I can’t go in to town

My brother he ain’t working and my sister doesn’t care

The car it needs a motor so I can’t go anywhere

Manana Manana

Manana is soon enough for me

Once I had some money but I gave it to a friend

He said he’d pay me double he was only for a lend

But he said a little later that the horse it was so slow

Why he gave the horse my money is something I don’t know

Manana Manana

Manana is good enough for me

My brother took his 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 chili pot

But then I burned the house down the chili was too hot

Manana Manana

Manana is soon enough for me

The window it is busted and the rain is coming in

If someone doesn’t fix it I’ll be soaking to my skin

But if we wait a day or two the rain may go away

And we don’t need a window on such a lovely day

Manana manana manana is soon enough for me

Manana manana manana is soon enough for me
