The Donkey Serenade
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?Que, esta?She listens carefully to each little tune you play.Oh, la bella senorita!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 eyeThough 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 mileSongtexteFor the charm of her smile.Amigo mio, is she listening to my song?Que, esta?No, no, mi muchachito, how can you be so wrong?Si, la bella senorita!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!
