Lyrics
Welcome mis amigos To friendly Mexico. To the last of fiestas They're everywhere you go.

Listen to marimbas And mariachis, too. Playing Latin rhythm And serenading you.

Come join the crowd. The music's good and loud. The air is full of song. So come and sing along.

Because in Mexico, When people smile at you, There's just one thing to do: You join the fiesta, too.

FIESTAS IN MEXICO Lyrics by F.X. Atencio and music by Armando Corral

So long, happy people. We hate to see you go. Hurry back, amigos To friendly Mexico.

Come on back to Taxco, To Acupulco, too. Pretty senioritas And charros wait for you.

We'll meet again In tropical Cancun, In charming Mazatlan, Or maybe in Tulum.

Because in Mexico, When folks meet now and then, They never say "goodbye." It's "'til we meet again."
