We Are The Three Caballeros

"We Are The Three Caballeros" is a song from the House of Mouse episode "The Three Caballeros". Donald is having an identity crisis so Mickey asks Panchito and José to help him out, only for both Panchito and Jose to unintentionally humiliate Donald onstage in the process. The trio performs this track towards the end of the show.

They performed this song again in the DuckTales 2017 episode "The Town Where Everyone Was Nice!"

It uses the same melody as La Bamba.

Lyrics[]

Ay yai yai yai!
Ay yai yai yai!
Ay yai yai-
We are The Three Caballeros!
We love to sing and to dance and to jump up and down
While we play lots of music
And we listen to everyone screaming out loud
Oh, the Three Caballeros!
Hear them shout out our names:
I'm Panchito!
José!
Donald!
And we love to make music!
While we wiggle our hips and we dance and we sing:
Everybody!
Ay caramba! Ay caramba!
Do the rumba!
A great big musical number!
Oh the Three Caballeros!

We are the Three Caballeros!
We love to sing and to dance and to jump up and down
Thus we move to the music!
Everyone get together and gather around
While we say!
We are the Three Caballeros!
(I'm Donald Duck!)
We love to sing and to play!
(I'm Donald Duck!!)
We're Panchito, José
(And me, Donald Duck!!!)
Clap your hands all together let's hear you say:
Viva Three Caballeros!!
Viva Three Caballeros!
We are the Three Caballeros!
