Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Quien quiere comprame frutas
Mangos de mamey y bizcochuelos
Piñas, piñas dulces como azucar
Cultivadas en la lomas del caney
Llevo ricos mangos de mamey
Piñas que deliciosas son
Como labios de mujerCaney de oriente
Tierra de amores
Cuna florida donde vivo el Siboney
Donde las frutas son como flores
Llenas de aromas y saturadas de miel
Caney de oriente
Tierra divina
Donde la mano de Dios echo su bendicion
Quien quiere comprarme frutas sabrosas
Marañones y mamoncillos del Caney
Fruuuuuuuuuuuutaaaaaas
Mira cacerita que llego el frutero
Si usted no me compra seguro que me muero si
Comprale las frutas al frutero si
Lleva fruta, fruta sabrosa tambien el mani
Fruuuuutas
Pero que compra, compra, compra, compra, compra, frutero
Mira, mira, mira que muero si
Frutero, frutero, frutero si
No, no, no me dejes asi
Lleve la fruta deliciosa
Vamos todos a comer si

Caney de oriente
Tierra de amores
Cuna florida donde vivo el SiboneyDonde las frutas son como flores
Llenas de aromas y saturadas de miel

Donde la mano de Dios echo su bendicion
Quien quiere comprarme frutas sabrosas
