Verse 1
from Argentina
Knew all the answers,
Em
although her relatives and friend
Eb
s were perfect dancers
C
D
She swore she'd never dance a step
C
G
D
G
until she died
Eb
Cm
Eb
She said, I've seen
G
too many movies,
and all they prove is too idiotic.
They all insist that
Eb
South America's exotic,
Am
C
whereas it couldn't be
D
G
more boring if it tried.
Eb
She added firmly
A
that she hated the
sound of soft guitars
Bm
beside a steel lagoon.
E
G
C
She also positively stated
Am
B
that she could not abide a southern mood.
C
B
G
She said with most refreshing candour
that she thought commemoranda
C
was subversive propaganda
B
and should rapidly be shot.
She said she didn't care a jot
if people quoted her or not.
G
Eb
She refused to begin the beguine
B
when they requested it.
G
An d she made an embarrassing scene
C
if anyone suggested it.
Eaug
Abaug
F
Eb
E
A
For she detested him.
D
Oh, no one ever could be
G
keener than little Nina
on quite a number of very eligible men
Em
Am
who did the rumble.
C
When they proposed to her,
D
she simply left them flat.
Eb
Ab
D
She said that love should be impulsive,
Gm
but not convulsive.
And syncopation
G
Em
Eb
had a discouraging effect on procreation.
Am
Dsus4
D
And that she'd rather read a book,
G
D
and that was that.
Eb
Ab
Senorita Nin a, from Argentina,
despised the tango.
Abaug
Bbm
And though she never was a girl to let a man go,
Eb
She wouldn't sacrifice her principles
for sex.
She looked with scorn
Ab
Eb
on the gyrations of her relations,
Ab
Who danced the conga,
Abaug
Bbdim
and swore that if she had to stand it any longer,
Bbm
Eb
She'd lose all dignity
and wring their silliness.
Bb
She said that frankly she was blind
G
Bb
to all their over -advertised ro
Cm
mantic charms.
Ab
C#
And then she got more bloody -minded
Eb
and told them where to put their
She said, I hate to be pedantic,
Ab
Eb
but it drives me nearly frantic
Ab
when I see that sycophantic
C
and romantic lot of Sluts,
Eb
C
forever wriggling their guts.
Abaug
Ab
C
Abaug
It drives me absolutely nuts.
C
Ab
She declined to begin the beguine,
Abaug
Eb
though they besought her to.
Abaug
Ab
And in language profane and obscene,
Bbm
she cursed the man who taught her to.
C#
F#
Eb
She cursed Cole Porter,
F#
Abaug
Ab
Eb
Ab
too. From this it's fairly clear
that Nina, in her demeanor,
was so offensive
that when the hatred of her friends
Bb
grew too intensive,
Bbm
Eb
she thought she'd better beat it
Ab
while she had the chance.
Eb
After some trial and tribulation,
Abm
she reached the station
Ab
and met a sailor
Abaug
who had acquired a wooden leg
Bbm
in Venezuela
Eb
and so she married him
Ab
because he couldn't dance.
Dbm
There surely never could have been
Abaug
Ab
a more irritating girl than
E
A
They never speak in Argentina
Bbdim
Eb
of this degenerate Bambina,
Eb
who had the luck to find romance,
Ab
Db
Ab
E
Resolutely wouldn't dance
Ab
She wouldn't dance
Ole!
