Hernandos Hideaway Lyrics

Hernandos Hideaway

Hernando’s Hideaway
Archie Bleyer
(Richard Adler-Jerry Ross)
from the
musical "The Pajama Game"




I know a dark
secluded place.
A place where no one knows your face.
A glass of wine, a
fast embrace.
It’s called Hernando’s Hideaway. Ole!

All you’ll
see are silhouettes.
And all you’ll hear are castanets.
And no one
cares how late it gets.
Not at Hernando’s Hideaway. Ole!

At the
Golden Fingerbowl or any place you go
You will meet your Uncle Max and
everyone you know,
But if you’ll go to the spot that I am thinkin’
of,
You will be free to gaze at me and talk of love.

Just knock thee
times and whisper low
That you and I were sent by Joe,
Then strike a
match and you will know
You’re in Hernando’s Hideway.
Ole!



Just knock three times and whisper
low
That you and I were sent by Joe,
Then strike a match and you will
know
You’re in Hernando’s Hideaway.
