[ Featuring NELLIE DU TOIT ]
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
Si, si, mi muchachito
He loves 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 hee-haw
Senorita, donkey's feet are
Not so fleet as a mosquito
Not so sweet like my chiquita
You're the one for me
There's a light in her eye
Though she may try to hide it
She cannot deny
There's a light in her eye
Oh, but the charm of her smile
So beguiled Don Diego
That he rode a mile
For the charm of her smile
Amigo mio, is she listening to my song?
No, no, mi muchachito, how can you be so wrong?
Si, si, la senorita
She loves 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 hee-haw
Senorita, donkey's feet are
Not so fleet as a mosquito
But so sweet like my chiquita
You're the one for me
Ole
