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 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
