My heart is in Rosario under the Argentine skies
|
There with a beautiful lady with her dark and sparkling eyes
|
My heart is in Rosa Rio your sentimental eye aye
|
There with a beautiful lady that I love the day that I die aye aye aye
|
|
The parents were rich Estancieros and I was just the one of the hands
|
Who herded their ten thousand cattle 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
|
I know that she'll never miss me or notice that I'm even gone
|
The cowboy who saddled her pony now rides through the dark night alone
|
My heart is in Rosario...
