Aguano people
The Aguano (also Awano,Ahuano, Hilaca,Uguano, Aguanu, Santacrucino, Tibilo) are a people of Peru. In 1959, they consisted of 40 families. They inhabit the lower Huallaga and upper Samiria Rivers, and the right bank tributary of the Marañon River.
Today they farm and have largely converted to Roman Catholicism.
History
In the 16th century, Aguano first encountered the Spanish. Diseases introduced by the Europeans and warfare with the Jívaro people killed off much of the tribe. Surviving members of the Aguano proper, Cutinana, and Maparina peoples joined together to form what became known as the Aguana people.
In the 19th century, the Aguano lived near Santa Cruz at the lower banks of the Huallaga River. As they became more acculturated into Spanish Peruvian society, they adopted the name Santacrucinos.

Hey There Fancy Pants
by: WeenHey, there fancy pants
Play the songs that make us dance
Play the tunes that make the ladies swoon
A song for all the lonely hearts
Shattered dreams and broken parts
Feels like sunny days are coming soon
Hey Mr. Buttercup
Spin the wheel and try your luck
The spotlight's shining bright tonight on you
Bring along your lady friend
Do a dance from way back when
Tonight's the night when all your dreams come true
Hey there sour grapes
Down in the dumps, long in the face
Drinkin' down your dinner, all alone
Feelin' bad, feelin' blue
Tonight the rainbow ends with you
So sit on down and make yourself at home, so
Hey there fancy pants
Play the songs that make us dance
Play the tunes that make the ladies swoon
A song for all the lonely hearts
Shattered dreams and broken parts
Feels like sunny days are coming soon
Fancy pants
Fancy pants
Fancy pants
