Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I am Francisco Vasquez García

I am welcome to Almería

We have sin gas and con leche

We have fiesta and feria

[Verse 2]

We have the song of the chochona

We have brandy and half Corona

And Leonardo and his accordioni

And calamari and macaroni

[Chorus]

Come all you rambling boys of pleasure

And ladies of easy leisure

We must say "adiós" until we see Almería once again

[Verse 3]

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?"

[Verse 4]

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

[Chorus]

Come all you rambling boys of pleasure

And ladies of easy leisure

We must say "adiós" until we see Almería once again

[Verse 5]

El veinticinco de agosto

Abrió sus ojos Jaime Fearnley

Pero el bebé cinquante gin Campari

Y se tendió para cerrarlos

[Verse 6]

Y Costello el rey del América

Y suntuosa Cáit O'Riordan

Non romperé mes colliones

Los gritos fuera de las casas

[Chorus]

Come all you rambling boys of pleasure

And ladies of easy leisure

We must say "adiós" until we see Almería once again
