Jim Reeves - Rosa Rio lyrics

My heart is in Rosa Rio under the Argentine skies

There with a beautiful lady with her dark and sparkling eyes

My heart is in Rosa Rio your sentimental eye aye

There with a beautiful lady that I love the day that I die aye aye aye

The parents were rich Estenaciaros and I was just the one of the hands

Who herded their ten thousand cattle on their ten thousand acres of land

But I was a very poor cowboy and we lived in worlds far apart

So how could I tell her I loved her or speak of the love in my heart

The lady I loved never loved me the lady I loved never knew

The day that she married another a poor cowboy's heart broke in two

I know that she'll never miss me or notice that I'm even gone

The cowboy who saddled her pony now rides through the dark night alone

My heart is in Rosa Rio...
