SPANISH FLEA
By Cissy and Julius Wechter
There was a lit-tle Span-ish flea
-1 -1* 2 -2 -5 -5 4 -4
A rec-ord star he thought he'd be
3 -2* -2 2 4 4 -3* -3
Hed heard of sing-ers like Bea-tles
-2 2 -1* -1 -2 -3* 3 -3*
The Chip-munks he'd seen on T- V
4 -2 3* 4* -3* 4* -5* -6
Why not a lit-tle Span-ish flea?
-6 7 -6 7 -6 5* 4 -2
And so he hid
-5 -5 4 -4
In-side a dog-gie from Ma-drid
3 -2* -2 2 4 4 -3* -3
Ar-riv-ing here in the ci-ty
-2 2 -1* -1 -2 -3* 3 -3*
Still sing-ing his sweet har-mo- ny
4 -2 3* 4* -3* 4* -5* -6
As broke as an- y flea could be
-6 7 -6 7 -6 5* 4 -3*
He walked a-round
-3* 4 -5 -5*
As if he owned the town
-5* -6 -5* 7 -6 -5*
Hum-ming his pint sized mel-o-dy
5* 4 -3* 3* 3* -3* -4 4
With his gui-tar he knew he'd be a star
3* -3* 4 4* 4* -5* 5* -6 -5* 5*
And in his old home town,
-4 -3* 3* -2* -2* 3*
how proud they'd be
-3* -3 -3* 4
Then all at once he met a man
-1 -1* 2 -2 -5 -5 4 -4
Who said, "I'll help you if I can"
3 -2* -2 2 4 4 -3* -3
He list-ened first to his song
-2 2 -1* -1 -2 -3* 3
Then he sang right a-long for you see
-3* 4 -2 3* 4* -3* 4* -5* -6
He loved the lit-tle Span-ish flea
-6 7 -6 7 -6 5* 4 -3*
Youll be the rage.
-3* 4 -5 -5*
Ill put you on the stage
-5* -6 -5* 7 -6 -5*
In cos-tumes like youve nev-er worn.
5* 4 -3* 3* 3* -3* -4 4
Well, at a glance
3* -3* 4 4*
he knew this was his chance
4* -5* 5* -6 -5* 5*
Yes all at once a Span-ish star was born.
-4 -3* 3* -2* -2* 3* -3* -3 -3* 4
For when the peo-ple heard him play
-1 -1* 2 -2 -5 -5 4 -4
They all be-gan to shout O-le!
3 -2* -2 2 4 4 -3* -3
He was the pride of the na-tion,
-2 2 -1* -1 -2 -3* 3 -3*
A sing-ing sen-sa-tion was he
4 -2 3* 4* -3* 4* -5* -6
Though he was just a Span-ish flea.
-6 7 -6 7 -6 5* 5 -3*
