I Really Like Him

Lyrics

[SANCHO] I like him I really like him Tear out my fingernails one by one, I like him! I don't have A very good reason Since I've been with him cuckoo-nuts have been in season But there's nothing I can do Chop me up for onion stew Still I'll yell to the sky Though I can't tell you why That I like him! [ALDONZA, spoken] It doesn't make any sense.  [SANCHO, spoken] That's because you're not a squire.  [ALDONZA, spoken] All right, I'm not a squire. How does a squire squire? [SANCHO, spoken] Well, I ride behind him, and he fights. Then, I pick him up off the ground and— [ALDONZA, spoken] But what do you get out of it? [SANCHO, spoken] What do I get? Oh, why already I've gotten— I've gotten— [ALDONZA, spoken] You've gotten nothing! Why do you do it? [SANCHO] I like him I really like him Pluck me naked as a scalded chicken, I like him! Don't ask me For why or wherefore 'Cause I don't have a single good "Because" or "Therefore" You can barbecue my nose Make a giblet of my toes Make me freeze, make me fry Make me sigh, make me cry Still I'll yell to the sky Though I can't tell you why That I like him!
