“My Friend Emilio from Puerto Rico,” Friend, June 1974, 33

My Friend Emilio from Puerto Rico

He calls a cat “gato;”

I call a cat “cat.”

What he calls a “sombrero”

I just call “hat.”

He says, “Muchos gracias!”

I say “Thanks a lot!”

I can’t always tell what he’s saying—so what?

Still we play and get along fine!

For I’m Emilio’s friend,

And he’s a friend of mine!
