Rosa Rio

My heart is in Rosa Rio Under the Argentine skies There with a beautiful lady With her dark and sparkling eyes My heart is in Rosa Rio Your sentimentae aye-aye There with a beautiful lady That I'll love the day that I die Her parents were rich Estenaciaros And I was just one of the hands Who hearded 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 And 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 Rosa Rio Under the Argentine skies There with a beautiful lady With her dark and sparkling eyes My heart is in Rosa Rio Your sentimentae aye-aye There with a beautiful lady That I'll love the day that I die --- Rosa Rio - Jim Reeves
