In old Padres Nadres Old Mexico |
|
Once in my travel I happened to go |
|
I met Maria and we fell in love |
|
It seemed like heaven came down from above |
|
|
|
Dark skin and dark eyes and dark wavy hair |
|
All kept me spellbound as love filled the air |
|
I held her tightly then to my surpise |
|
She whispered soft words with tears in her eyes |
|
|
|
Go home go home your people would not understand |
|
Go home go home go back to your own homeland |
|
|
|
With gentle persuasion I changed her mind |
|
I said they'd love her and treat her so kind |
|
So we went together to my old hometown |
|
I wanted to show my old friends what I'd found |
|
|
|
But hate made my sweet dream a nightmare |
|
One day I came home and she was not there |
|
A note on the table tore my world apart |
|
My old friends has been there and told my sweetheart |
|
|
|
Go home go home your place is not with this man |
|
Go home go home go back to your own homeland |
