There's a song in the airBut the fair senorita doesn't seem to careFor the song in the air.Oh, I'll sing to the muleIf you're sure she won't think that I am just a foolSerenading a mule.Amigo mio, does she not have a dainty bray?(BOY:) Que, esta?(JONES:) She listens carefully to each little tune you play.(BOY:) Oh, la bella senorita!(JONES:) Si, si, mi muchachito,She'd love to sing it too if only she knew the way.But try as she may, in her voice there's a flawAnd all that the lady can sayIs hee-haw-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-wSenorita, donkey's feet areNot so fleet as a mosquitoBut so sweet like my chiquitaYou're the one for me!There's a light in her eyeSongtexteThough she may try to hide it, she cannot denyThere's a light in her eye.Oh, the charm of her smileSo beguiled Don Diego that he rode a mileFor the charm of her smile.Amigo mio, is she listening to my song?(BOY:) Que, esta?(JONES:) No, no, mi muchachito, how can you be so wrong?(BOY:) Si, la bella senorita!(JONES:) Si, si, la senorita,She'd love to sing it too if only she knew the way.Her face is a dream, like an angel I saw,And all that my darling can screamIs hee-haw-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-wSenorita, donkey's feet areNot so fleet as a mosquitoBut so sweet like my chiquitaYou're the one for me!Ole!
