Pat Boone, Speedy Gonzales (1962)
Key: :[G] (w: Buddy Kaye, Ethel Lee, David Hess)

INTRO: [*R1]

SPOKEN:
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

CHORUS:
La, la, [G] laaaaa,
La, la, la, la, la, la, [Em] laaaaa
La, la, la, la, la, la, [C] laaaaa
La, la, la, la, la, la, [D] laaaaa

VERSE 1:
You'd better come home, Speedy Gon-[G]-zales
Away from Cannery [Em] Row
Stop all your [C] drinkin'
With that floozie named [D] Flo

VERSE 2:
Come on home to your ado-[G]-be
And slap some mud on the [Em] wall
The roof is leakin' like a [C] strainer
[D] There's lots of roaches in the [G] hall [C] [G open]

BRIDGE:
Speedy Gon-[C]-zales, why don't you come [G] home?
Speedy Gon-[C]-zales, how come you leave me all a-[D]-lone?

SPOKEN:
Hey, Rosita, I have to go shopping downtown for my mother
She needs some tortillas and chili peppers

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 3:
Your dog is gonna have a [G] puppy
And we're runnin' out of [Em] Coke
No enchiladas in the [C] icebox
And the television's [D] broke

VERSE 4:
I saw some lipstick on your [G] sweatshirt
I smell some perfume in your [Em] ear
Well, if you're gonna keep a-[C]-messin'
[D] Don't bring your business back-a [G] here [C] [G open]

REPEAT BRIDGE:

SPOKEN:
Hey, Rosita, come quick; down at the Cantina
they've got some green stamps with tequila

REPEAT CHORUS:
