Hernandoâ??s Hideaway
Archie Bleyer
(Richard Adler-Jerry Ross)
from the musical "The Pajama Game"




I know a dark secluded place.
A place where no one knows your face.
A glass of wine, a fast embrace.
Itâ??s called Hernandoâ??s Hideaway. Ole!

All youâ??ll see are silhouettes.
And all youâ??ll hear are castanets.
And no one cares how late it gets.
Not at Hernandoâ??s Hideaway. Ole!

At the Golden Fingerbowl or any place you go
You will meet your Uncle Max and everyone you know,
But if youâ??ll go to the spot that I am thinkinâ?? of,
You will be free to gaze at me and talk of love.

Just knock thee times and whisper low
That you and I were sent by Joe,
Then strike a match and you will know
Youâ??re in Hernandoâ??s Hideway. Ole!



Just knock three times and whisper low
That you and I were sent by Joe,
Then strike a match and you will know
Youâ??re in Hernandoâ??s Hideaway.
