Met a gal in calico
Down in Santa Fe
Used to be her Sunday beau
`Til I rode away
Do I want her
Do I want her love - yes, siree
Will I win her
Will I win her love - wait and see
Workin` with the rodeo
Rode from town to town
Seen most every kinda gal
Every kind of gown
But who makes my heart sing
Yipee yi, yipee yo -
My little gal in calico
I`ll take my gal in calico
Down in Santa Fe
Guess I better let her know
That I feel this way
Is she waitin` (is she waitin`)
Aw, she`d better be
Am I hopin` to be ropin` her
Yes siree
Gonna quit the rodeo
Gonna settle down
Buy a bolt of calico
For a wedding gown
And will I fence her in
Yip yipee yi, yip yipee yo ---
My little gal in calico
Little gal in calico
My little gal in calico
Yipee yi, yipee yo -------
