Can anyone give me an English translation of the lyrics to "Pachito E-Che" by Perez Prado?

It's a mambo song from the 40s-50s, played by the Perez Prado orchestra and sung by Benny More. I have it on the CD Mondo Mambo from Rhino Records, track number 4. The lyrics are in Spanish, and I would like a translation.

    You can find the Spanish lyrics on the web. I looked on Google and found this link:

    Here's my translation:

    Well yes sir, this is the truth

    There's a man with talent and brains

    Intelligent, alert, and gentle,

    Who always respects the heart

    Who is that? Who is that?

    That I'm gonna tell you.

    Who's that? Who's that?

    I'm going to tell you all.

    Who is he? Who is he?

    That I must tell.

    Who is he? Who is he?

    I'm going to tell you.

    Pachito Eché, they told the man

    Pachito Eché and he made quite an impression

    Pachito Eché dances mambo and son

    Pachito Eché is very expressive.

    He likes dance, and romantic poetry,

    He plays Toruro (a card game), and is a great champion

    He's a santioqueño, and he works very hard,

    And is very beloved throughout the nation.
