Tex Ritter Lyrics
"Cielito Lindo"

Let me tell you 'bout a Latin guy
'Neath a beautiful beautiful beautiful sky.

You know my brother,
Ooh, what a lover!
All day he strums in his guitar;
But he doesn't get far,
For his senorita loves another!

Play, play your song,
Oh, stop your weeping!
She'll hear your tune, la-la, la-la-la!
So play on while she's sleeping!

I-yi-yi-yi!
Oh, don't you cry, da-doo-da-da!
She'll hear your tune
And come to you soon,
So play on while she's sleeping!

I, yi-yi-yi-yi, yi-yi!
Da-doo-da-doo-da-doo-da, da-doo-da-doo!
I, yi-yi-yi-yi!
Let me confess what I feel for you.

Let me confess that I love you,
Let me profess I adore you;
Senorita, wake up, wake up, wake up,
Hear my serenade of love to you.

I, si-si-si!
Cielito lindo makes a beautiful sky,
I-hi, oh what a guy1
Here I'm singing to her 'neath the beautiful sky,
I-yi!
