Lionel Bart
Little White Bull
Once upon a time there was a little white bull
Very sad, because he was a little white bull
(Little white bull)
All the black bulls called him a coward
Just 'cause he was white
Only black bulls go to the bullring
Only black bulls fight
When he asked his mama if a little white bull
(Little white bull)
Ever had a chance of turning black
His mama said, you silly little bull
You're a pretty little bull
You're my little bull
So please don't ask me why, little bull
You just ain't black!
But this did not satisfy that little white bull
(Little white bull)
He was an exception to that little white rule
(Little white rule)
Everyday alone in the meadow, he'd find things to
Charge
Till one day he really imagined, that his horns were
Large
Bold as brass right then and then, the little white
Bull
(Little white bull)
Quickly found the nearest road to town
And people said, what a funny little bull
What a fluffy little bull, he's our little bull
He marched along, a proud little bull
And hit the town!
It was the day of the bullfight, all the town were
There
Waiting to see the famous matador
Trumpeters sounded a fanfare, tam-ta-da-dam-tam-taaa!
Out from the throats of the crowd came a mighty roar
Into the ring to the shout of a great olé (olé!)
Came the parade, all prepared for a mighty fray
Matadors and picadors and toreadors
And who do you think as well?
Trotting right behind them came the little white bull
(The little white bull)
How they laughed out loud to see the little white bull
(Little white bull)
Trotting 'round the giant arena, with his head up high
Till the matador in the centre caught his tiny eye
Charging right up to him went the little white bull
(Little white bull)
Charging twice and charging once again
The matador cried, torro little bull!
You're not a little bull, you're a brave little bull
You're gonna be a great little bull
The best in Spain!
Then the crowd all shouted, torro little bull!
You're not a little bull, you're a brave little bull
You're gonna be a great little bull
The best in Spain!
So if you got a little bull, that's a white little bull
It's quite possible that it might be the bull
That's the best in Spain
