Juanita banana

Dans un village de La Havane vivait la jolie Juanita.
Comme son père plantait des bananes, on l'appelait Juanita Banana.
Elle avait une voix magnifique et rêvait de chanter à l'opéra.
Mais son père qui n'pigeait rien à la musique disait "ma fille a une drôle de voix"
Ahhhh ah ah ah ah...Juanita banana...Ahhhh ah ah ah ah......
Un jour elle partit en cachette et prit le train pour Cuba.
Deux mois après elle était vedette. La grande diva de l'opéra.
Quand on lui dit qu'avec une voix pareille sa fille gagnait des millions, le père courut au village, s'acheta une guitare d'occasion en criant "au diable les bananes, j'me lance aussi dans la chanson"
Et alors...
Laaaa... la la la la...Ahhhh ah ah ah ah...
