The Gaucho Serenade

Glenn Miller · 100th Anniversary [2004]

Nat Simon, John Redmond & James Cavanaugh)

(vocals: Ray Eberle)



Every night when the moon is shining bright

Down in Rio Janeiro

Comes a gent with a mellow instrument

And a colourful sombrero

Then he sings and the melody he brings

So tenderly played

Is called the Gaucho Serenade

Si senor, he's a happy troubador

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

And hear the Gaucho Serenade

The Gaucho Serenade
