No more rules from other lands
To take what's made from our hands.
Zaragoza fought at Puebla to win
With only untrained Mexican men.

Cinco de Mayo is coming this way,
We celebrate pride, independence and freedom this day.

So celebrate with food and song;
Let us dance all day long.
At the fiesta, listen to the mariachis play
With violins, guitars, and trumpets. Ole!

Cinco de Mayo is coming this way,
We celebrate pride, independence and freedom this day.

Tonight we dance under the twinkling stars
While a pinata overhead swings near and far.
When Cinco de Mayo comes to an end,
Fireworks will light up the sky for my friends.

Cinco de Mayo is coming this way,
We celebrate pride, independence and freedom this day.

Come Join the Fun

Sung to: "Frere Jacques"

Cinco de Mayo, Cinco de Mayo,
Is lots of fun, for everyone.
Many celebrations,
Loved ones get together.
Come join the fun, with everyone.

Sung to: "Sing a song of sixpence"

Here is our pil
What a sight to see,
Filled with treats & goodies
Just for you & me.
When it's time to break it,
We'll circle all around
Then we'll scramble for the treats
That fall down to the ground.

Sung to: "The Farmer and the Dell"

It's Cinco de Mayo Day!
It's Cinco de Mayo Day!
Let's clap our hands and sing "Ole".
It's Cinco de Mayo today!

Cinco de Mayo's Here

Sung to: "Skip, Skip, Skip to My Lou"
Cinco de Mayo's here,
Cinco de Mayo's here,
Cinco de Mayo's here,
Let's give a little cheer.

Cinco de Mayo's fun,
Cinco de Mayo's fun,
Cinco de Mayo's fun,
It's fun for everyone.

Sung to: "Do you know the muffin man"

Do you know the story of, the story of , the story of
Do you know the story of this great and happy day?

Yes, I know that brave Juarez, brave Juarez, brave Juarez
Yes I know that brave Juarez Chased the French away

The French they had no right to rule ,no right to rule, no right to rule,
The French they had no right to rule Our lovely Mexico

Our soldiers and the people said, the people said, the people said
Our soldiers and the people said The French have got to go

So Juarez formed an army troop, an army troop, an army troop,
So Juarez formed an army troop to chase the French away

That's why we like to celebrate, celebrate, celebrate,
That's why we like to celebrate On the 5th of May
