Every night when the moon is shining Bright down in Rio De Janiero Comes a gent with a mellow instrument And a colorful sombrero Then he sings and the melody he brings So tenderly played Is called the Gaucho Serenade La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la Si, Senor he's a happy troubadour On a patio you'll find him Si Senor, he will go from door to door Leaving happiness behind him All the sweet Senoritas hurry out to join the parade La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la The Gaucho Serenade
