[Verse 1]
We were standing on a mountain top
Where the cactus flowers grow
I was wishing that the world would stop
When you said, "We'd better go"
We took a row boat across the Rio Grande
Captain Pablo was our guide
For two dollars in a weathered hand
He rowed us to the other side
[Chorus]
We were dreaming like
The end was not in sight
And we dreamed all afternoon
We asked the world to wait
So we could celebrate
A gringo honeymoon
[Verse 2]
We stepped out onto the golden sand
The sun was high and burning down
Rented donkeys from an old blind man
Saddled up and rode to town
Tied our donkeys to an Ironwood tree
By the stream where children play
We went in the first place we could see
Serving cold beer in the shade
We were standing on a mountain top
Where the cactus flowers grow
I was wishing that the world would stop
When you said, "We'd better go"
We took a row boat across the Rio Grande
Captain Pablo was our guide
For two dollars in a weathered hand
He rowed us to the other side
[Chorus]
We were dreaming like
The end was not in sight
And we dreamed all afternoon
We asked the world to wait
So we could celebrate
A gringo honeymoon
[Verse 2]
We stepped out onto the golden sand
The sun was high and burning down
Rented donkeys from an old blind man
Saddled up and rode to town
Tied our donkeys to an Ironwood tree
By the stream where children play
We went in the first place we could see
Serving cold beer in the shade
