The Return of the Gay Caballero

[Verse 1]
I am a gay caballero
I'm back again from Janeiro
And you bet your life
I'll be dodging the wife
And the husband who chewed off my ear-o

While coming here on the steamer
I met a beautiful dreamer
Each kiss that I got
Her lipstick left a spot
And the captain thought I had eczema

[Turnaround]

[Verse 2]
Last night I strolled on the plaza
The music was playing some Jazz-a
Then I heard a noise
'Twas made by some boys
My gosh I was getting the [?]

Then I met a sweet bambolina
I told her I owned a casin-a
Would she lеave home that night
She said that shе might
For poker but not for casin-a

[Turnaround]

[Verse 3]
She said for a job she was wishing
For she lost hers at some exhibition
I said "I'm a nice chap
Just sit on my lap
You can't find a better position"

I told her that she was so simple
And she had a cute little dimple
Then she said to me
"That you dimple you see
When turned inside out it's a pimple"

[Turnaround]

[Verse 4]
I said take a trip to my Manor
Then a trip to old Santa Ana
Then somebody cried
"Hey you outside
I hope you trip on a banana"

She took me to her home to nestle
Her room was as big as a castle
I said why so much space
Then she said "in case
You get fresh, I need room to wrestle"

[Turnaround]

[Verse 5]
She asks me to stay to met mother
When I saw her, my face I did cover
When her dad did appear
I held my one ear
For 'twas him who chewed off the other

So I'm back in Rio Janeiro
I'm been married for many a year-o
But for me there's not joy
I've got seven boys
And each one was born with one ear-o
