(Intro mandolin style fast Latin beat)
A-little Pedro (He's got to fight the bull) A-little Pedro (He's got to fight the bull) A-little Pedro (He's got to fight the bull) To win the governor's daughter
Way down in-a Mexicali There was a cat named Little Pedro He got the red sombrero, has a silly grin A-everywhere he goes
A-there's a bull, in the old bullpen Just a-snortin' an a-kickin' all day He knocked down twenty-two houses Killed twenty-one men And they stood up and said, H'Ole'
A-little Pedro (He's got to fight the bull) A-little Pedro (He's got to fight the bull) A-little Pedro (He's got to fight the bull)
Win the governor's daughter
Bull charged in with his eyes a-flamin' To the center of the ring (yeah) In stormed Pedro with a silly grin A-like he could not kill a thing
Took a short step forward And he's turnin' around He saw the bull comin' at his feet He grabbed the red sombrero And his bag he packed And he headed for the nearest backstreet
The bull couldn't stop As he started to charge He hit the hard concrete wall Said that there was a smile on his face And that was the end of it all
A-little Pedro (He's done a-killed the bull) A-little Pedro (He's done a-killed his bull) A-little Pedro (He's done killed the bull) He win the governor's daughter
