There's a song in the air,
But the fair señorita
Doesn't seem to care,
For the song in the air.
Oh, I'll sing to the mule,
If you're sure she won't think that,
I am just a fool,
Serenading a mule.
Jones: Amigo mio, does she not have a dainty bray?
Boy: Que, esta?
Jones: She listens carefully to each little tune you play.
Boy: Si, la bella señorita!
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 flaw,
And all that the lady can say
Is hee-hawwwwwwwwww.
Señorita Donkey's feet
Are not so fleet,
As a mosquit-o.
But so sweet,
Like my chiquit-a.
You're the one for me!

A light in her eye,
Though she may try to hide it,
She cannot deny
There's a light in her eye.
Oh, the charm of her smile
So beguiled Don Diego,
That he rode a mile
For the charm of her smile.
Jones: Amigo mio, is she listening to my song?
Boy: Que, esta?
Jones: No, no, mi muchachito, how can you be so wrong?
Boy: Oh, la bella señorita!
Jones: Si, si, la señorita,
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 scream,
Is hee-hawwwwwwwwww.
Señorita Donkey's feet
Are not so fleet,
As a mosquit-o.
But so sweet,
Like my chiquit-a.
You're the one for me!
Ole!
