Don Williams - Senorita lyrics

rate me

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
