about

Translation:
I'm from Miami, but I have a problem. I do not speak Spanish well.
I studied it in school for 4 years, but I forgot it.
Ay ay ay ay I do not know why. Ay ay ay ay- Makes me sad.
Oh, I want to learn Spanish.
Tapas, paella, tortillas, burritos, I love to eat.
A pencil, a book, a chair. How is my accent? OK?
Ay ay ay ay I do not know why. Ay ay ay ay- Makes me sad.
Oh, I want to learn Spanish.
Listen! One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten
ay ay ay ay - That's my Spanish.
Ay ay ay ay I do not know why. Ay ay ay ay- Makes me sad. Oh, I want to learn Spanish.

* Señor Montero, you did your best to teach me Spanish in school, but I really owe thanks to Google translate for making my song a reality. Parents/Teachers- practicing a few words in Spanish each day and listening to music in a foreign language at an early age opens children’s minds and can help them become bilingual. Follow along with the translation.

lyrics

Soy de Miami, pero tengo un problema
Yo no hablo español bien.
Lo estudié en la escuela 4 años
Pero – lo olvidé

Ay ay ay ay- No sé por qué. Ay ay ay ay- Me hace triste.
Oh, Quiero aprender español.

Tapas, paella, tortillas, Burrito. Me encanta comer.
Un lápiz, un libro, una silla. “¿Cómo es mi accento?” Bien?

Ay ay ay ay- No sé por qué. Ay ay ay ay- Me hace triste.
Oh, Quiero aprender español. ¡Escuchen!

Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, seis, siete, ocho, nueve, diez.

Ay ay ay ay - Asi es mi español.
