PAT BOONE - SPEEDY GONZALES

It was a moonlit night in old Mexico
I walked alone between some old adobe haciendas
Suddenly I heard the plaintive cry of a young Mexican girl

La la la, la la la la la la la
La la la, la la la la la la la la la la la la

You better come home Speedy Gonzales
Away from Cannery Row
Stop all of your drinkin'
With that floozy named Flo
Come on home to your adobe
And slap some mud on the wall
The roof is leakin' like a strainer
There's lots of garbage in the hall

Speedy Gonzales, why don't you come home
Speedy Gonzales, how come you leave me all alone

Hey Rosita, I have to go shooping
Down town for my mamma
She needs some tortillas and chilli peppers
La la la, la la la la la la la la
La La La la la la la la, la la la la la la la la

Your dog is gonna have a puppy
And we're running out of coke
No enchiladas in the ice box
And the telebision's broke
I saw some lipstick on your sweat shirt
I smell the purfume in your ear
Well, if you've gonna keep on messin'
Don't bring your business back here

Speedy Gonzales, why don't you come home
Speedy Gonzales, how come you leave me all alone

Hey Rosita, come quick, down at the cantina
They're giving green stamps with tequila
La la la la la la la la
