Met a gal in calico
  Down in Santa Fe
  Used to be her Sunday beau
  'Til I rode away
  Do I want her
  Do I want her love - yes, siree
  Will I win her
  Will I win her love - wait and see
  
  Workin' with the rodeo
  Rode from town to town
  Seen most every kinda gal
  Every kind of gown
  But who makes my heart sing
  Yipee yi, yipee yo -
  My little gal in calico
  
  I'll take my gal in calico
  Down in Santa Fe
  Guess I better let her know
  That I feel this way
  Is she waitin' (is she waitin')
  Aw, she'd better be
  Am I hopin' to be ropin' her
  Yes siree
  
  Gonna quit the rodeo
  Gonna settle down
  Buy a bolt of calico
  For a wedding gown
  And will I fence her in
  Yip yipee yi, yip yipee yo ---
  My little gal in calico
  
  Little gal in calico
  My little gal in calico
  Yipee yi, yipee yo -------
