[Verse 1]
Sheriff Paco rode in slow
Dust on his boots, hat low
Paquito laughed, said, “Let’s go”
A new bad hombre took the road
He flipped the sign at noon
Talked big under a hot sun
But Frieda came in with the trays
And everyone chose her way
[Pre-Chorus]
The whole town turned
At that golden smell
Paco’s Tacos on the left
Paquito’s Burritos as well
The villain smirked too hard
Then the crowd got loud
Three names on the board tonight
And Frieda’s standing proud
[Chorus]
Frieda’s Empanadas
Frieda’s Empanadas
Hot and gone in one bite
Frieda’s Empanadas
Paco’s Tacos came close
Paquito’s Burritos held tight
But Frieda’s Empanadas
Won the night
[Verse 2]
The villain tried to bluff
Said, “I’ll shut this whole plaza down”
But Paco slapped the table hard
And Paquito spun him around
One crunch, one grin, one cheer
The judge cleaned every plate
Frieda raised her flour hands
Said, “Boys, that’s a clean sweep, mate”
[Pre-Chorus]
The whole town turned
At that golden smell
Paco’s Tacos on the left
Paquito’s Burritos as well
The villain lost his nerve
When the orders came out hot
Three cheers shook the cantina roof
And Frieda got the spot
[Chorus]
Frieda’s Empanadas
Frieda’s Empanadas
Hot and gone in one bite
Frieda’s Empanadas
Paco’s Tacos came close
Paquito’s Burritos held tight
But Frieda’s Empanadas
Won the night
[Bridge]
The villain packed his pride
And the dust blew clean away
Paco tipped his silver badge
Paquito shouted, “Stay and stay!”
Frieda winked at the crowd
“Try another round?”
The whole town sang back, “Yes!”
As the trumpets jumped the sound
[Final Chorus]
Frieda’s Empanadas
Frieda’s Empanadas
Hot and gone in one bite
Frieda’s Empanadas
Paco’s Tacos came close
Paquito’s Burritos held tight
But Frieda’s Empanadas
Won the night
Frieda’s Empanadas
Frieda’s Empanadas
Hot and gone in one bite
Frieda’s Empanadas
