I met a lady in my drifting days
I quickly fell under the spell of her loving ways
A rose in the desert I loved her so
In the land of enchantment New Mexico

We watched the sunset by the Rio Grande
A mission bell ring farewell she took my hand
She said come back amigo no matter where you go
To the land of enchantment New Mexico
[ guitar ]
From her arms I wandered far across the sea
I often heard her gentle words haunting me
Come back amigo I miss you so
To the land of enchantment New Mexico

Come back amigo no matter where you go
To the land of enchantment New Mexico
