A Gal In Calico (1946)
Met a gal in calico down in Santa Fe
Used to be her Sunday beau till I rode away
Do I want her? (Do you want her love?)
Yes, sirree
Will I win her? (Will you win her love?)
Wait and see
Working with a rodeo (go from town to town)
See most every kind of gal (every kind of gown)
But who made my heart sing (yippee aye, yippee oh)
My little gal in calico
(Yippee aye, yippee oh)
Working with a rodeo, go from town to town
See most every kind of gal (every kind of gown)
But who made my heart sing (yip-yippee aye, yip-yippee oh)
My little gal in calico (My little gal in calico)
