She was a Latin daughter
He was a caballero
He went around to court her
But from her balcony
He could hear her say
"No can do, no can do
Me mama and me papa say no can do
No can do, no can do
I want for me to go with you, but no can do
You like me, I like you
Just like Romeo, I think you would be true
No can do, no can do
Me mama and me papa say no can do"
The moon she said to me "Come on, come out tonight
I'd like for you to take my hand and hold it tight
And if it's love, it can't be wrong, it must be right"
But oh, no
"No can do, no can do
I'd like to do it, what you call it, 'picture-woo'
But no can do, no can do
Me mama and me papa say no can do"
"No can do, no can do
I'd like to do it, what you call it, 'picture-woo'
But no can do, no can do
Me mama and me papa say no can do"
No can do - how about you?
No can do - I'll be true
But your mama and your papa say no can do
