[00:00.00]时代音乐网 www.78497.com[00:08.92]When it's fiesta time in Guadalajara
[00:20.45]Then I long to be back once again
[00:23.33]In Old Mexico
[00:28.79]Where we lived for today
[00:30.48]Never giving a thought to tomorrow
[00:35.94]To the strumming of guitars
[00:37.77]In a hundred grubby bars
[00:39.79]I would whisper Te amo
[00:44.17]The mariachis would serenade
[00:47.23]And they would not shut up
[00:48.86]Till they were paid
[00:51.00]We ate we drank and we were merry
[00:53.93]And we got typhoid and dysentery
[01:00.76]But best of all
[01:01.83]We went to the Plaza de Toros
[01:04.49]Now whenever I start feeling morose
[01:07.14]I revive by recalling that scene
[01:14.49]And names like Belmonte
[01:16.13]Dominguin' and Manolete
[01:18.71]If I live to a hundred and eighty
[01:21.33]I shall never forget what they mean
[01:34.75]For there is surely nothing
[01:35.93]More beautiful in this
[01:36.95]World than the sight of a lone man
[01:39.94]Facing single handedly
[01:41.86]A half a ton of angry pot roast
[01:49.44]Out came the matador
[01:51.03]Who must have been potted or
[01:52.90]Slightly insane
[01:54.34]But who looked rather bored
[01:58.87]Then the picadors of course
[02:00.68]Each one on his horse
[02:02.30]I shouted Olé every time one was gored
[02:08.54]I cheered at the banderilleros display
[02:11.59]As they stuck the bull in their own clever way
[02:14.45]For I hadn't had so much fun since the day
[02:18.41]My brother's dog Rover
[02:20.80]Got run over
[02:27.75]Rover was killed by a Pontiac
[02:31.71]And it was done
[02:32.50]With such grace and artistry
[02:34.87]That the witnesses awarded the
[02:36.15]Driver both ears
[02:37.66]And the tail
[02:41.26]But I digress
[02:44.17]The moment had come
[02:45.63]I swallowed my gum
[02:47.29]We knew there'd be blood
[02:48.94]On the sand pretty soon
[02:53.92]The crowd held it's breath
[02:55.76]Hoping that death
[02:57.14]Would brighten an otherwise dull afternoon
[03:03.48]At last
[03:04.51]The matador did what we wanted him to
[03:07.42]He raised his sword
[03:08.89]And his aim was true
[03:10.44]In that moment of truth
[03:12.28]I suddenly knew
[03:15.87]That someone had stolen my wallet
[03:24.41]Now it's fiesta time in Akron Ohio
[03:35.90]But it's back to old Guadalajara
[03:38.34]I'm longing to go
[03:43.82]Far away from the strikes of
[03:45.98]The A F of L and C I O
[03:50.79]How I wish I could get back
[03:52.75]To the land of the wetback
[03:54.55]And forget the Alamo
[03:58.20]In Old Mexico
[04:02.67]Olé
