San Miguel

San Miguel - Lonnie Donegan

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 and 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 por 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

She's a wife of the rancher

Don carlos cantrell

But you serve at the ranch

And 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 por favor

Or The carriage manuel

Or Manuel close the door
