The Donkey Serenade
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 little donkey
if you're sure she won't think that
I am just a fool
serenading a donkey.
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's 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 donkeysita, 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 beguiled Don Diego
that he rode a mile
for the charm of her smile.
Chorus II
Amigo mio, is she listening to my song?
No, no, mi muchachito, how can you be so wrong?
La bella Senorita?
Si, Si, la senorita,
She's love to sing it too if only she knew the way.
Her face is a dream
like an angel I saw!
But all that my darling can scream
is: "E-E-AW!"
Senorita donkeysita, not so fleet as a mosquito,
but so sweet like my Chiquita,
you're the one for me.
Ole!
