I'm a poor peasant boy
I'm a dirt farmer's son
And I feel like a king
When I know that my work is all done
For at twilight I know
There's a place I must go
And sing my song over for one who waits all alone

Yo te amo, Maria
Maria, amore
Yo te amo, Maria
Maria, mi amor

All the beautiful sights
All the great city lights
Where most people must runto try to have fun
Not for me
For this woman of mine
Is much sweeter than wine
And I spend all the time I can find with Maria

Yo te amo, Maria
Maria, amor
Yo te amo, Maria
Maria, mi amor

All the joy of my life
Will one day be my wife
And we'll spend all our days
Watching the world roll on by
When her time comes to fly
To that home in the sky
I pray the angels above will have her as much as I

Yo te amo, Maria
Maria, amor
Yo te amo, Maria
Maria, mi amor
