The Donkey Serenade - Allan Jones

There's a song in the air

But the fair senorita doesn't seem to care

For the song in the air

Oh 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

Que esta

She listens carefully to each little tune you play

Oh 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 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

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 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

Que esta

No no mi muchachito how can you be so wrong

Oh la bella senorita

Si si la senorita

She'd love to sing it too if only she knew the way

Her face is a dream like an angel I saw

And 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
