Babalu (Orooney)

Margarita Lecuona, Bob Russell

Babalu, Babalu, Shango
Babalu, Babalu, Babalu

Aye baba rooney, baba rooney
Aye baba rooney rooby rooby roo

'Ta empezando lo velorio
Que le hacemo a Babalú
Dame diez y siete velas
Pa' ponerle en cruz

Dame un cabo de tabaco mayenye
Y un jarrito de aguardiente
Dame un poco de dinero mayenye
Pa' que me de la suerte

Y quiero pedir
Que mi negra me quiera
Que tenga dinero
Y que no se muera
Ay! Yo le quiero pedir a Babalú
Una negra muy santa como tú
Que no tenga otro negro
Pa' que no se fuera

Babalú a ye!
Babalú a ye!

Jingle bells, jingle rooney

Babalú a ye!
Babalú a ye!

Babalu, Babalu, Shango
Babalu, Babalu, Babalu
