Speedy Gonzales
Kaye, Hill, Lee / Pat Boone (1962)
It was a moonlight night in old Mexico
I walked along between some old adobe haciendas
Suddenly, I heard the plaintive cry of a young Mexican girl:
| D | Bm | G | A7 | |||
| La la | la, la la la la la la | la | La la la la la la | la | La la la la la la | la |
| D | Bm | |
| You'd better come home, Speedy Gon | zales - Away from Cannery | Row |
| G | A7 | |
| Stop all your | drinkin' - With that floozie named | Flo |
| D | Bm | |
| Come on home to your a | dobe - And slap some mud on the | wall |
| G | A7 | D | ||
| The roof is leakin' like a | strainer | - | There's lots of roaches in the | hall |
| G | D | |
| Speedy Gon | zales (Speedy Gonzales) - Why don't you come | home? |
| G | A | |
| Speedy Gon | zales (Speedy Gonzales) - How come you leave me all a | lone? |
Hey, Rosita! I have to go shopping downtown for my mother. She needs some tortillas and chili peppers!
| D | Bm | G | A7 | |||
| La la | la, la la la la la la | la | La la la la la la | la | La la la la la la | la |
| D | Bm | |
| Your dog is gonna have a | puppy - And we're runnin' out of | Coke |
| G | A7 | |
| No enchiladas in the | icebox - And the television's | broke |
| D | Bm | |
| I saw some lipstick on your | sweatshirt - I smell some perfume in your | ear |
| G | A7 | D | ||
| Well, if you're gonna keep a- | messin' | - | Don't bring your business back-a | here |
| G | D | |
| Speedy Gon | zales (Speedy Gonzales) - Why don't you come | home? |
| G | A | |
| Speedy Gon | zales (Speedy Gonzales) - How come you leave me all a | lone? |
Hey, Rosita, come quick! Down at the Cantina they've got some green stamps with tequila!
| D | Bm | G | A7 | |||
| La la | la, la la la la la la | la | La la la la la la | la | La la la la la la | la |
