Behind The Fan
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
[Verse:]
Be careful of the Senorita
Who knows the value of a fan
That's how a beautiful Chiquita
Becomes acquainted with a man
I've seen them flirting with a stranger
And when the game of love began
He didn't realize the danger
Behind her fan
[Refrain:]
Eyes of brown are peeping at you
From behind the fan
No one knows just what they can do
To the heart of a man
There behind a shelter of lace
Lies a hidden plan
You may find a heavenly face
With the heart of a devil behind the fan
