As I was roaming along the Rio Grande
I saw het staring at the stream
Her gaze was hollow and her skin was so pale
She took me beneath her veil
She said she waited for her love to return
Who had vanished here last year
I lay beside her as we shared the night
Then she wept herself to sleep, as she cried:
Come back, come back, let me say farewell
I repent, I resent, this cruel fate of mine
Don't cry my baby, Don't cry my baby
Don't cry, Don't cry
I took one last look at the Rio Grande
The only witness of the games she plays, and then
Cold steel, ran through my spine, as she kissed me goodbye
And I fell on my knees, into the river, where the stream took me away
Don't cry my baby, Don't cry my baby
Don't cry, Don't cry
No llores mas, No llores mas
