Lyrics

Rosalita Rosie That Mexican moon shinin' bright Oh, but with Paco and Pepe lookin' on No, I don't feel right I think I could love you But I just can't have you alone So I guess I'll pack up, go back To my West Texas home I met this señorita On a trip down to Ole Mexico She was sittin' in the shade of a cactus A Saguaro I sit down beside her and smiled her A Texas "Hello" Oh, with her mother and father lookin' on From the window Rosalita Rosie That Mexican moon shinin' bright (Shinin' so bright) Oh, with your mother and father lookin' on You know I don't feel right Think I could love you But I just can't have you alone (Have you alone) So I guess I'll pack up, go back To my West Texas home (Flaco) I offered my hand We walked through fields of corn Mountains were gleamin' an' steamin' With the sun goin' down Turkeys were sleepin' and the burros Were bellowin' low When I leaned down to kiss her Her sister say "No" Rosalita Rosie That Mexican moon shinin' bright (Shinin' so bright) Oh, with your sister Consuelo lookin' on No, I don't feel right Think I could love you But I just can't have you alone (Have you alone) Oh, I guess I'll pack up, go back To my West Texas home So I guess I'll pack up, go back West Texas home So I guess I'll pack up, go back West Texas home
