Spanish Rose
Bye Bye Birdie

I'm just a Spanish tamale according to Mae

Right off the boat from the tropics, far, far away

Which is kind of funny

Since where I come from is Allentown, PA

Spanish! Okay, Mae I'll be Spanish

Right after I've married Alberto


I'll be the toast of chi-chi Costanango

And all day long my castanets will click

I'll hide behind my fan and do the tango

I'll be so Spanish it will make you sick


I'll eat the tacos and the enchilada

I'll drink tequila till I feel no pain

The only song I'll sing will be 'Granada'

I'll be more espanol than Abbe Lane


Coo coo coo, la cuc racha

So call me the wild Spanish rose

The craziest flower that grows

I'll kick up my heels and see

How it feels to be sultry Spanish rose, ole


Behind my mantilla I will pose

The beauty that nobody knows

So regal and cool, exciting and cruel

That's me, Spanish rose


Me name Rosita Hernandez


You'll buy my tortilla

You like me, yes? No? Maybe? Eeyuckh!


Americano let me give you a bit of advice

To cross Spanish rose isn't wise

Your match you have found

So don't mess around

Her heart she cold like ice


With Albert I will dance to the bolero

We'll cha cha in the nicest honky tonks

He'll wear the cutest mustache and sombrero

My handsome Latin lover from the Bronx


So now that you've met Spanish rose

You'll never forget Spanish rose

She'll taunt you

She'll tame you but what man would blame you

For worshiping Spanish rose


Not Danish

Not British

Not Swedish

Not Yiddish

But Spanish Rosa
