Lyrics
With my concertina and my dog Felipe
I go to Mexicali one fine day
I meet a Senorita who have a cute chihuahua
Who smile at my Felipe while I play
I wink at the sweet senorita
I say I am happy to meet her
I tell her she couldn’t be sweeter
Felipe do nothing but sniff
I buy her a beautiful flower
I talk of romance by the hour
I say she belong in a bower
Felipe give out with a whiff
Si, Si, amigo, love she is lovely
In all the world is no thing like love
With my concertina and my dog Felipe
I go to serenade her one fine night
I sing “La Golondrina” and “Cielito Lindo”
Underneath her window till daylight
Oh! what is that rumble I wonder?
I look in the window I’m under
The lady is snoring like thunder
Oh! what a terrible sight
I’m feeling so tired and sleepy
I look for my little Felipe
Chihuahua, she no feeling sleepy
Felipe he doing all right
Si, si, amigo, love she is lovely
In all the world is no thing like love
With my concertina but no dog Felipe
I go from Mexicali one fine day
Si, si, amigo, love she is lovely
In all the world is no thing like love
