Why don’t the Portuguese have their own main? Errol Flynn fights only Spanish baddies Who twirl their moustaches in sneering disdain And the villains are never Portuguese ladies When ships do battle on Warner’s sound stage The English are haughty, the Spanish snooty Prince Henry’s brave men are never the rage And the heroine is never a Lisboan beauty Harken unto this repeated refrain: Why don’t the Portuguese have their own main?

The Portuguese Main in Old Movies
Why don’t the Portuguese have their own main? Errol Flynn fights only Spanish baddies Who twirl their moustaches in sneering disdain And the villains are never Portuguese ladies When ships do battle on Warner’s sound stage The English are haughty, the Spanish snooty Prince Henry’s brave men are never the rage And the heroine is never a Lisboan beauty Harken unto this repeated refrain: Why don’t the Portuguese have their own main?
