la mariquita

Linda Ronstadt

Mariquita she was called
The girl that lives by the river
Cover me with your shawl
Because I am dying of cold

Because I took her away
Her mother was mad at me
Now that she is the one who takes me away
Let's see if I get mad at her

Give me a kiss Mariquita
Your mother has ordered me to do so
My mother can give me orders
But she can't tell me who to kiss
