Oh Americans dance on a dance floor.
And the Spaniards, they dance on a table.
And the Russians, they dance on a saber.
But the Mexicans dance on their hats.
Oh they dance on hot coals in Calcutta.
In Wisconsin they dance on fresh butta,
Which they squeeze from one cow or anutta.
Yes, the Mexicans dance on their hats.
(Ole!)
There are Mexicans dancing on derbies.
There are Mexicans dancing on caps.
They just throw their fedoras
Wherever the floor is,
And start doing horas and taps.
They won't quit! They go on!
It's a Mexican custom,
To take hats and bust 'em,
By doing a dance thereupon.
Oh the reason they shot Pancho Villa
Was he danced on his mother's mantilla.
And the message did not reach Garcia.
He was out somewhere dancing on hats.
(Ole!)
There's a fellow in West Acapulco,
The most elegant man you could meet.
He does sambas on hombergs
To tunes of Sig Romberg's,
And sometimes the Nutcracker Suite.
So take care! So beware!
Or they'll put castanets on
And ruin your Stetson,
'Cause they all think they're Fred Astaire!
If you're ever in Mexico proper,
And you're wearing a straw hat or topper,
When the band starts to play, call a copper,
'Cause by now you should know
That they'll grab your chapeau, And they'll stomp till it's flat,
And that's that!
That's what Mexicans do on your hat.
(Ole!)
Allan Sherman (November 30, 1924 – November 20, 1973) was an American comedy writer and television producer who became famous as a song parodist in the early 1960s. Born in New York to a Jewish family, Sherman began his career as a comedy writer for theater and television. His debut album, *My Son, the Folk Singer* (1962), became the fastest-selling record album up to that time, thanks to the success of songs like "Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh", a parody of Ponchielli's famous *Dance of the Hours*. Sherman continued to release successful albums throughout the 1960s and 1970s, characterized by intelligent humor and catchy melodies. Among his most famous songs are also "The Ballad of Irving Berlin" and "A Bushel and a Peck". His music helped define American musical humor in the 1960s, influencing generations of artists.
