Even if you’re from Ohio, it’ll get you by-o.
Don’t get it in your eye-o unless you want to cry-o
So come on, don’t be shy-o, eat some pico de gallo!
It’s got jalapenos, I reckon y’all have seen those.
They’re kinda hot for gringos and probably flamingos.
Just add some tomatillos, onions and cilantro,
Lime juice and tomato, you got pico de gallo!
It was Cinco de Mayo, and I was down on the bayou
With my good friend Venus de Milo,
We were watchin’ Hawaii Five-O
She wanted some French fry-o’s, or maybe apple pie-o
And I said why, oh, why-o? We got pico de gallo!
Pico de gallo, you oughta give it a try-o
Even if you’re from Ontari-i-o, it’ll get you by-o.
Don’t get it in your eye-o unless you want to cry-o
So come on, don’t be shy-o, eat some pico de gallo!
So come on, don’t be shy-o, eat some pico de gallo!

I simply can’t imagine why the CabinBoys were giving me funny looks when I was singing to them about pico de gallo the other night…can you?
