Lyrics The Lancashire Toreador - George Formby
I′ve
been
to
Spain
but
never
again,
I
couldn't
go
there
twice
′Cos
my
name's
John
Willie
but
they
said
it
sounded
silly
And
they
wouldnt
call
me
that
at
any
price.
They
soon
made
me
change
my
name
and
a
real
proper
Spaniard
I
became:
Don
Pedro,
the
big
bull-fighting
hero,
The
Lancashire
Toreador.
They
cheer
me
and
when
the
bull
gets
near
me
To
show
how
far
a
brave
man
can
go
with
the
bull
I
danced
the
Tango.
Then
when
I
hung
on
his
tail
my
pants
he
tried
to
gore.
I
went
dashing
round
the
ring
with
him
giving
chase,
Three
times
he
tossed
me
in
the
air,
I
looked
a
disgrace.
They
shouted,
'Look
at
all
that
skin
and
bone
round
the
place,
It′s
The
Lancashire
Toreador.′
Don
Pedro,
the
big
bull-fighting
hero,
The
Lancashire
Toreador.
I
met-a
charming
senor-eta
She
said,
'To
love
you
I
can
never′,
then
kissed
me
good-bye
for
ever.
That
night,
as
she
retired,
she
locked
her
bedroom
door.
She
started
to
undress
and
timidly
she
looked
round,
Said,
'Thank
God,
I
am
rid
of
him
for
he′s
homeward
bound',
But
when
she
pulled
the
bed
clothes
down
now
guess
what
she
found?
Why
The
Lancashire
Toreador.
Don
Pedro,
the
big
bull-fighting
hero,
The
Lancashire
Toreador.
I
scare
′em,
no
mercy
ever
spare
'em.
In
the
dead
of
night
I
ramble,
Spanish
castle
walls
I
scramble.
I
saw
a
shadow
above
a
girl
in
her
boudoir.
I
climbed
up
her
balcony,
it
started
to
sway.
She
shouted,
'Murder!
there′s
a
bandit,
spare
my
life,
pray′.
But
when
my
castanets
I
rattled
she
said,
'Hooray!
It′s
The
Lancashire
Toreador'
