Fernando Lyrics

Fernando - he was the matador
he was so proud and elegant
that was what the girls loved him for
when he was a little boy
his childhood's sad
his mother's dead
and now he is the espada of corrida de torros
Fernando, face to face
with el torro, Fernando runs
and the muletta dies in the dust of the arena

Fernando runs with el torro
the vuelta al ruedo

deprived and chased away
the ruedo, his disgrace
ripped medias
and he lost his zapatillas
and his father cries as Fernando begs
for his shoes, his zapatillas
oh maria my faithful sister
please darn my broken muletta

Fernando
face to face, with el torro
Fernando runs
and the muletta dies in the dust of the arena
Fernando runs with el torro
the vuelta al ruedo
Fernando runs
the vuelta al ruedo

oh Fernando was the bullfighter, he was the guy that no bull fought for sure
he was the bullfighter, he died beside a dusted bull in the bull's arena
he died beside a dusted bull
in the bull's arena
