La Dicha Mia Composer(s): Johnny Pacheco Performer(s): Celia Cruz and multiple other artists
Lucky me, to perform in Havana And there, I became a singer of songs They led me to the great Mamboleros In all of Cuba, the toast of the town
Singing at the Tropicana My fantasies finally came true Imagine, going to New York Seeing the great ones, in my heart untold
We saw Arsenio with his swinging band And Señor Rodríguez, that magical man I took this earthquake to El Barrio Got hugs and kisses from mi gente
Lucky me, I saw my Tito Ay Dios Mío, El Excelente Listening to my Machito, dancing, drinking vino Machito was for us El Count Basie Latino
Made it up to the Palladium It didn't disappoint at all At the ball, with Tito Puento Tito Puento the king of them all
With Tito Puente, you'd be so glad to dance El rey Tito Puente created a trance When Tito finished playing How could anything feel so low
Surprise came Tito Rodríguez With his conjunto, to top it all Better two Titos, than only one Better for dancing, and also for fun
El Señor Me Dio La Dicho de grabar Con Tito Puente Y Cantar Con Tito Rodríguez (Esa Dicha Me La Dio El Señor) Ven A Gozar Con La Dicha, A Gozar Con La Dicha (Esa Dicha Me La Dio El Señor)
(Esa Dicha Me La Dio El Señor) Ay Yo Le Canto a Yemaya a Oshun y a Obatala (Esa Dicha Me La Dio El Señor) Y Al Que Dios Se Lo Dio San Pedro Se Lo Bendiga
La Dicha Mia me la dio El Señor
