1. My heart is in Rosa Rio under the Argentine skies
2. Her parents were rich Estenaciaros and I was just one of the hands
3.The lady I loved never loved me the lady I loved never knew
1. There with a beautiful lady with her dark and sparkling eyes
2. Who herded their ten thousand cattle on their ten thousand acres of land
3. The day that she married another a poor cowboy's heart broke in two
1. My heart is in Rosa Rio your sentimentae aye aye
2. But I was a very poor cowboy and we lived in worlds far apart
3. I know that she'll never miss me or notice that I'm even gone
1. There with a beautiful lady that I love the day that I die
2. So how could I tell her I loved her or speak of the love in my heart
3. The cowboy who saddled her pony now rides through the dark night alone
Aye aye aye aye
