Mariposa
Wooooo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oooo!
La-la-la-la-la-la-aaaa!
La-la-la-la-oo-aaaa!
The girl from Peru, the one that they called Mariposa
She's taking the bus and meeting her brother in Utah
But across the aisle: a cowboy from Post, known as Andy
He holsters a smile, to her, he has taken a fancy
Yes, I'll wait and see
Maybe you're the one for me
Maybe you're my wild flower
Just waiting 'round for my company
He sat next to her, tippin' the brim of his stetson
Too nervous for words, her cheeks burned the color of crimson
But all the past jerks of her mother's suitors made her panic
But she was caught by surprise when he spoke to her in fluent Spanish
Well if God should choose that I'm for you
Maybe then you'll be mine too
Won't you free me from this cocoon
La-da-doo-da-ya! La-doo-da-ya!
La-da-da-da-ya-ya-ya-ya-oo-oo!
Ahhhh!
La-da-doo-da-ya! La-doo-da-ya!
La-da-da-da-ya-ya-ya-ya-oo-oo!
Yes, I'll wait and see
Maybe you're the one for me
Maybe you're my wild flower
Just waiting 'round for my company
They rambled for hours, their words were like streams of a fountain
He spoke of the plains, she described every curve of the mountains
When they reached his stop, he sang her a song with an accent
Happy trails to you, until we meet again
And if God should choose that I'm for you
Maybe then you'll be mine too
Won't you free me from this cocoon... oh!
I said won't you free me from this cocoon
La-da-doo-da-ya! La-doo-da-ya!
La-da-da-da-ya-ya-ya-ya-oo-oo!
Ahhhh!
La-da-doo-da-ya! La-doo-da-ya!
La-da-da-da-ya-ya-ya-ya-oo-oo!
Ahhhh!
La-da-doo-da-ya! La-doo-da-ya!
La-da-da-da-ya-ya-ya-ya-oo-oo!
Ahhhh!
La-la-la-la-la-la-aaaa!
