Met a gal in calico, down in santa fe;
Used to be her sunday beau til i rode away.
Do i want her, do i want her love?
Yes siree!
Will i win her, will i win her love?
Wait and see!
Workin?with a rodeo, go from town to town.
See most evry kind a gal, evry kind a gown.
But who made my heart sing
Yippee yi! yippee yo!
My little gal in calico.
Take my gal in calico, down in santa fe;
Guess id better let her know that i feel this way.
Is she waitin? is she waitin?
She better be.
Am i hopin?to be ropin?her?
Yes siree!
Gonna quit the rodeo, gonna settle down,
Buy a bolt of calico for a weddin?gown.
Then will i fence her in
Yippee yi! yippee yo!
My little gal in calico
