Rosa Rio

(álbum: Moonlight And Roses - 1964)

(Aye, aye, aye, aye)

My heart is in Rosa Rio
Under the Argentina skies
There with a beautiful lady
With her dark and sparkling eyes

My heart is in Rosa Rio
Your sentimental aye, aye
There with a beautiful lady
That I love the day that I die
Aye, aye, aye, aye

The parents were rich Estenaciaros
And I was just the one of the hands
Who hearded ten thousand cattles
On their ten thousand acres of land

But I was a very poor cowboy
And we lived in worlds far apart
So how could I tell her I loved her
Or speak of the love in my heart

The lady I loved never loved me
The lady I loved never knew
The day that she married another
A poor cowboy's heart broke in two

And I know that she'll never miss me
Or notice that I'm even gone
Cowboy who saddled her pony
Now rides through the dark night alone

My heart is in Rosa Rio
Under the Argentina skies
There with a beautiful lady
With her dark and sparkling eyes

My heart is in Rosa Rio
Your sentimental aye, aye
There with a beautiful lady
That I love the day that I die
Aye, aye, aye, aye...
