Mambo Magsaysay by Rosita Dela Vega with the Ball Quartette and the Filtone Recording Orchestra Lyrics

Everywhere that you would look
Was a bandit or a crook
Peace and order was joke
Till Magsaysay pumasok!

That is why, that is why
You will hear the people cry
Our democracy will die
Kung wala si Magsaysay!

Mambo, mambo Magsaysay!
Mabu, mabu, mabuhay!
Our democracy will die
Kung wala si Magsaysay!

Birds they voted in Lanao
At pati aswang pa daw
Ang eleksyon lutong macao
Till Magsaysay showed them how!

That is why, that is why
You will hear the people cry
Our democracy will die
Kung wala si Magsaysay!
Mambo, mambo Magsaysay!
Mabu, mabu, mabuhay!
Our democracy will die
Kung wala si Magsaysay!

Too much people's money spent
But no honest government!
No more graft or 10 percent
If Magsaysay's president!

That is why, that is why
You will hear the people cry
Our democracy will die
Kung wala si Magsaysay!

Mambo, mambo Magsaysay!
Mabu, mabu, mabuhay!
Our democracy will die
Kung wala si Magsaysay!
