Senorita

Back in the innocent days there was a young Cowboy

Who was in love with a Mexican girl

Only she didn't know it

And he would watch her when she walked back

In the cotton dress which danced in the wind

And her eyes held the stars

Now, she was the most beautiful thing

That cowboy had ever seen

Sent down straight from heaven

But he was afraid he would never win her heart

'Cause of some family scars left by the range wars

But oww how he loved her

Senorita passing by

Pardon me if i stop and ask you why

Senorita could it be

Someone like you could love someone like me

So he walked up to her

Tipped his hat and introduced himself

And she looked up at him and didn't know what to say

So he told her the story of his family

The trouble that brought the barbed wire

And all the things that he could'nt change

And then he told her that he loved her

And studied her reaction

And by the time the spring rains came

They were married

And there's an ol' song that my family used to sing

'Bout a young cowboy and a mexican girl

How they fell in love

Senorita passing by

Pardon me if i stop and ask you why

Senorita could it be

Someone like you could love someone like me

Senorita passing by

Pardon me if i stop and ask you why

Senorita could it be

Someone like you could love someone like

Someone like you could love someone like me
