San Miguel

San Miguel - The Kingston Trio

Written by：Bowers

Down by the mission

San Miguel is a great house

Where in dwell Don Carlos

And La Dona Maria Elena Cantrell

I work at the ranch I saddle her mare

I ride with the gun behind

As she visits her friends here and there

She says thank you

Manuel or Manuel

Poor favor

Or good evening Manuel

La Dona Maria Elena Cantrell

I dream of the mission San Miguel

And it says to me the mission bell

She is married Manuel the wife of the rancher

Don Carlos Cantrell

You serve at the ranch you hold her chair

You carry her boxes trunks

Letters and books here and there

But I hear with my heart

What she says with her eyes

With good evening Manuel or Manuel poor favor

Or The carriage Manuel

Or Manuel

Close the door
