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
Because of some family scars
Left by the range wars
But oww... how he loved her

Señorita 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

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

Señorita passing by
Pardon me if I stop and ask you why
Señorita could it be
Someone like you could love someone like me

Señorita passing by
Pardon me if I stop and ask you why
Señorita could it be
Someone like you could love someone like
Someone like you could love someone like me
