Slowly Intro:

G D7
I am Francisco Vasquez Garcia
G
I am welcome to Almeria
D7
We have sin gas and con leche
G
We have fiesta and feria
C G
We have the song of the chochona
C D
We have brandy and half corona
G D7
And Leonardo and his accordione
G
And calamari and macaroni
C G
Come all you rambling boys of pleasure
D7 G
And ladies of easy leisure
C G
We must say Adios! until we see
D7 G
Almeria once again
G D7 G C D7 G D7 G D7 G
There is a minstrel, there you see,
And he stoppeth one in three
He whispers in this one's ear
"Will you kindly kill that doll for me"
Now he has won chochona in the bingo
All the town has watched this crazy gringo
As he pulls off the doll's head laughing
And -miraldo! throws its body in the sea
G D7 G C D7 G D7 G D7 G
El vienticinco de agosto
Abrio sus ojos Jaime Fearnley
Pero el bebe cinquante Gin-campari
Y se tendio para cerrarlos
Y Costello el rey del America
Y suntuosa Cait O Riordan
Non rompere mes colliones
Los gritos fuera de las casas
G D7 G C D7 G D7 G D7 G G#o G D7 G Cm G

| I suspect it's "...we have brandy and have Corona..." referring to the yuppie-piss beer. | |
