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 a rodeo, go from town to town
See most evry kind a gal, evry kind a gown
But who made my heart sing
Yippee Yi! Yippee Yo!
My little gal in calico

Take my gal in calico, down in Santa Fe;
Guess Id 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 siree!
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
