por Doug Shivers Music played by Allan Fonseca Download the MP3 version of this song. In this song we get to reenact a local flea market in Mexico where you can buy your favorite musical instrument like an acoustic guitar. To prepare for the song, listen to recordings of music played by different instruments with the children. You can have someone come into the classroom and demonstrate how the instrument is played. Afterwards the children can come up to the front of the class and pretend to play the instrument that is mentioned in the song. With each verse, another instrument is added, so by the end of the song, everybody will be standing and playing their "instrument" when it is mentioned. En la Pulga de San José yo compré una guitarra, tarra, tarra, tarra, la guitarra. Vaya usted, vaya usted a la Pulga de San José. En la Pulga de San José yo compré una clarinete, nete, nete, nete, la clarinete tarra, tarra, tarra, la guitarra. Vaya usted, vaya usted a la Pulga de San José. En la Pulga de San José yo compré un violín, lin, lin, lin, el violín, nete, nete, nete, la clarinete tarra, tarra, tarra, la guitarra. Vaya usted, vaya usted a la Pulga de San José. En la Pulga de San José yo compré un saxofón, fon, fon, fon, el saxofón, lin, lin, lin, el violín, nete, nete, nete, la clarinete tarra, tarra, tarra, la guitarra. Vaya usted, vaya usted a la Pulga de San José. En la Pulga de San José yo compré un tambor, bor, bor, bor, el tambor, fon, fon, fon, el saxofón, lin, lin, lin, el violín, nete, nete, nete, la clarinete tarra, tarra, tarra, la guitarra.
