Nelson (# 15)
Sung by Jolson in the film "Go Into Your Dance" which also
starred Ruby Keeler, Glenda Farrell,

Morgan


Fate sent her to me over the sea from Spain
And
she is one in a million for me
I found my romance when she went dancing
by
And she must be a Castillian, s, s
Is she from Havana or
Madrid?
But something about her is making me doubt 'er

I think I remember the kid, yeah!

She's a Latin from Manhattan
I can
tell by her 'Man-ya-na"
She's a Latin from Manhattan
But not
Havana
Though she does the rhumba for us
And she calls herself
Dolores
She was in a Broadway chorus
Known as Suzy Donahue

She can
take her tambourine and whack it
But to her it's just a racket
She's a
hoofer from Tenth Avenue

She's a Latin from Manhattan
She's a
Forty-Second Streeter
She's a Latin from Manhattan
Seorita
Donahue

She can take her tambourine and whack it
But to her it's just
a racket
She's a hoofer from Tenth Avenue

She's a Latin from
Manhattan
She's a Forty-Second Streeter
She's a Latin from
Manhattan
Seorita Donahue


Velveeta!!
