Rose of Old Monterey

(Wayne Johnson)



I met her in old Monterey on a night that was filled with romance

We listened to violins play sweet music that have us in trance

I knew you were mine from the start your eyes were mischeated and gay

As I kissed my Rose of the border that night down in old Monterey.



Let's go manana one night with a lifetime to live

Sweet primadona my heart wanted only to give

I won't forget you your though duty forbids me to stay

I'll be that you call when the first petals fall

On my Rose down in old Monterey.
