It was a moonlit night in old Mexico.
   I walked alone between some old adobe haciendas
   When suddenly, I heard the plaintive cry of a young Mexican girl:

  ((La lalaaaaaa
    lalalalalalalalaaaa
    lalalalalalalalaaaa
    la la la la la la la laaaa))

You better come home, Speedy Gonzales
Away from tannery row
Stop all of your drinking
With that floozie named Flo
Come on home to your adobe
And slap some mud on the wall
The roof is leaking like a strainer
There's loads of roaches 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 shopping downtown for my mother
    She needs some tortillas and chili peppers

  ((La lalaaaaaa
    lalalalalalalalaaaa
    lalalalalalalalaaaa
    la la la la la la la laaaa))

Your dog is gonna have a puppy
And we're running out of coke
No enchiladas in the icebox
And the television's broke
I saw some lipstick on your sweatshirt
I smelled some perfume in your ear
Well if you're gonna keep on messing
Don't bring your business back a-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 lalaaaaaa
    lalalalalalalalaaaa
    lalalalalalalalaaaa
    la la la la la la la laaaa))
