[ti:The Lancashire Toreador] [ar:George Formby] [al:George Formby. When I'm Cleaning Windows - His 52 Finest 1932-1946] [offset:0] [00:00.85]The Lancashire Toreador - George Formby [00:07.82]I've been to Spain but never again, [00:11.48]I couldn't go there twice [00:14.48] [00:15.40]'Cos my name's John Willie [00:16.70]But they said it sounded silly [00:18.58]And they wouldnt call me that at any price. [00:21.87] [00:22.90]They soon made me change my name [00:25.70] [00:26.28]And a real proper Spaniard I became: [00:29.48] [00:31.07]Don Pedro, the big bull-fighting hero, [00:34.16]The Lancashire Toreador. [00:37.29] [00:38.66]They cheer me and when the bull gets near me [00:41.77]To show how far a brave man can go [00:44.05]With the bull I danced the Tango. [00:46.17]Then when I hung on his tail [00:49.51]My pants he tried to gore. [00:52.35] [00:53.73]I went dashing round the ring [00:55.22]With him giving chase, [00:57.29]Three times he tossed me in the air, [00:59.08]I looked a disgrace. [01:01.08]They shouted, [01:01.68]Look at all that skin and bone round the place, [01:04.49]It's The Lancashire Toreador.' [01:08.12] [01:09.30]Don Pedro, the big bull-fighting hero, [01:12.52]The Lancashire Toreador. [01:15.54] [01:16.56]I met-a charming senor-eta [01:20.33]She said, 'To love you I can never', [01:22.25]Then kissed me good-bye for ever. [01:24.33]That night, as she retired, [01:27.99]She locked her bedroom door. [01:30.74] [01:32.00]She started to undress and timidly she looked round, [01:35.62]Said, 'Thank God, I am rid of him [01:37.62]For he's homeward bound', [01:39.61]But when she pulled the bed clothes down [01:41.49]Now guess what she found? [01:43.20]Why The Lancashire Toreador. [01:45.99] [01:47.91]Don Pedro, the big bull-fighting hero, [01:51.23]The Lancashire Toreador. [01:54.13] [01:55.48]I scare 'em, no mercy ever spare 'em. [01:59.16]In the dead of night I ramble, [02:00.91]Spanish castle walls I scramble. [02:03.45]I saw a shadow above a girl in her boudoir. [02:09.74] [02:10.93]I climbed up her balcony, it started to sway. [02:14.49]She shouted, 'Murder! there's a bandit, [02:16.63]Spare my life, pray'. [02:18.47]But when my castanets I rattled she said, 'Hooray! [02:21.93]It's The Lancashire Toreador' [02:25.42]
