What’s a song lyric that has stuck with you forever?
It has to be from Pat Boone’s version of the Speedy Gonzales theme song. I was telling my grandchildren about it only two days ago. It’s not the song itself. It’s the two comments by Speedy.
Hey Rosita, come quick. I have to go shopping downtown for my mother. She needs some tortillas and chilli peppers.
And the second one, as someone who grew up with what were called Green Shield Stamps, in the UK,
Hey Rosita, come quick. Down at the cantina they’re given green stamps with tequila.
