"A Gal In Calico" lyrics - JOHNNY MERCER

Met a gal in calico, down in Santa Fe
Used to be her Sunday beau till I rode away
Do I want her, do I want her love? Yes sire
Will I win her, will I win her love, wait and see

Workin' with a rodeo, go from town to town
See most every kind a gal, every kind a gown
But who made my heart sing, yippee yi, yippee yo
My little gal in calico

I 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', she better be
Am I hopin' to be ropin' her, yes sire

Gonna quit the rodeo, gonna settle down
Buy a bolt of calico for a weddin' gown
Then will I fence her in yippee yi! yippee yo
My little gal in calico, little gal in calico
