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 of love for one who waits all alone

[Chorus:]
Yo te amo Maria
Maria amor
Yo te amo Maria
Maria, mi amor

Oh the beautiful sight
Of the great city lights
Where most people run
To 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 my Maria

[Chorus]

Oh, 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 love her as much as I
