Omar & the Howlers - Border Girl
The day is long and the land is dry Close to the river on the Texas side Hot sun's working on my mind Lord knows I miss my border girl
Rosetta is my dark-eyed girl A desert flower and a precious pearl San Vicente is another world I can't forget my border girl
Oh, my border girl. I need my border girl They try to keep us apart, but they can't stop me They can't stop me Oh, my border girl. I need my border girl
I'm gonna cross the river tonight I'll ask her father now one more time But her family's so dignified They won't let Rosetta be a Yankee's bride
Oh, my border girl. I need my border girl They try to keep us apart, but they can't stop me Can't stop me Oh, my border girl. I need my border girl
I'm gonna cross the river tonight I'll ask her father now more time And if he won't change his mind I'm gonna have to run with my border girl
Oh, my border girl. I need my border girl They try to keep us apart, but they can't stop me Can't stop me Oh, my border girl. I need my border girl
