Spanish Fireball lyrics
Song information
Artist: Hank Snow Album: Lonesome Whistle
Lyrics
I met a girl in laredo down in mexico While I was makin' the rounds Down in a dim cafe she does the swing and sway That's the talk of the town I never learned her name but she's called the spanish fireball
While she kept rhythm with her hips from her ruby lips Came a love song so sweet And as she rhumbaed by the fire in her eyes Looked like flames in the night T'was then I understood why she's called the spanish fireball
I finally asked her for a dance and I got the chance Holding her closely to me As we were cheek to cheek I grew too weak to speak And it was plain to see That I had fallen in love with this cute little spanish fireball [ guitar ] She wore a ruby braclet and a blue white diamond Upon her little brown hand She made a perfect date and in her cadillac eight She made me understand I played the part and gave my heart to the spanish fireball
We wandered out beneath the stars while the old guitars Strummed a mexican tune And as I stole a kiss I knew too well that this Would all end too soon Cause I must go away and leave my spanish fireball
As that old moon was sinking low I heard the whistle blow My train was pulling in sight And so we kissed goodbye the tears were in her eyes As I left in the night But someday I'll return back and claim my spanish fireball
