Lena

One day I went on a pleasure cruise Sailing ´cross the ocean it was beautiful All at once something caught my eye It was Lena passing by Right then and there I knew This was the girl for me As we looked at each other She smiled and I asked her name As she spoke I could tell I would never be quite the same I said will you come go with me To a calypso jamboree And dance the calypso, rock and roll a go go Lena don't tell me no And dance the calypso, rock and roll a go go Lena don't tell me no As we stood there together Gazing at the open sea I couldn't help telling her What she meant to a guy like me With such beauty and with such class For I knew that I must act fast I had to find a way to make Lena go with me I could see she was anxious to go but she hesitate She was afraid to agree with a stranger for a date As the sun slowly slipped away I was happy to hear her say She would dance the calypso Rock and roll a go go Lena I'm happy so And dance the Calypso, Rock and roll a go go Lena I'm happy so Carnival is tomorrow we're gonna have a ball I know that Lena will be The prettiest girl of all All the fellows will envy me They'll be poppin' their eyes to see When we dance together We will want nowhither They will want to get her I will tell them never Dancing the calypso Rock and roll a go go Lena I love you so
