There's a song in the air But the fair senorita Doesn't seem to care For the song in the air. So I'll sing to the mule If you're sure she won't think that I am just a fool Serenading a mule.
Amigo mio, does she not have a dainty bray? She listens carefully to each little tune you play. 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 flaw! And all that the lady can say is "e-e-aw!"
Senorita donkey sita, not so fleet as a mosquito, But so sweet like my Chiquita, You're the one for me
There's a light in her eye, Tho' she may try to hide it, She cannot deny, There's a light in her eye
Oh! the charm of her smile So beguiles all who see her That they'd ride a mile For the charm of her smile
Amigo mio, is she listenin' to my song? No, no, mi muchachito, how can you be so wrong? La bella senorita? Si, si, la senorita, She loves to sing it to me If only she knew the way
Her face is a dream Like an angel I saw! But all that my darlin' can scream is "e-e-aw!"
Senorita donkey sita, not so fleet as a mosquito, But so sweet like my Chiquita, You're the one for me
