El Lobo Naranjo (Revisit) Lyrics

The first spring day he rode into town, we were curious but wary

Men at his side, pistols on his belt, a rumor come to life and scary

He said "Good morning" to everyone with a smile sincere and wide

What a lovely place, well, drinks on me! For today, I'm on your side

So we sing of a mystery stranger who changed so much that day

El Lobo Naranjo, an outlaw people will say

One hard summer he rode into town, we had thrown a fiesta for fun

He stepped so smartly with ev'ry senorita. He spoke when the dance was done

Mister Mayor, I must be frank, I hear it's not going so well

So I rudely stopped a banker's train, here's some money. Please don't tell

So we sing of a mystery stranger who changed so much that day

El Lobo Naranjo, an outlaw people will say

El Lobo Naranjo, we'd laugh the wolf was tame

The Old Folks were laughing louder; silly kids, always the same

Then one autumn, he rode into town, we asked him to toast our good year

He said no thank you, the pistols came out, now please, fill these bags here

I live to spread good fortune for my troubles, I take on the side

May our tomorrows be fruitful! But we live for today. And so, I ride

So we sing of a mystery stranger who changed so much that day

El Lobo Naranjo, an outlaw people will say

El Lobo Naranjo, an outlaw people will say

We so love a scoundrel who throws money our way
