| Well I woke up Christmas morning,
|
| And what did I see?
|
| I saw a lovely señorita looking back at me Named Guadalupe, with big brown eyes,
|
| Boy, what did you this time?
|
| Made my excuses and a b-line for the bedroom door,
|
| She was beggin’and a-pleadin',
|
| Screamin', «Por favor, mi cumpleaños! |
| Stay with me, baby it’s cold outside.»
|
| We are livin’in a difficult time.
|
| We’ve been walkin’down a difficult line.
|
| Put your feet up baby it’s Christmas time!
|
| Cumpleaños feliz!
|
| Happy Birthday, Guadalupe!
|
| (Our time will come.)
|
| (We both, hold on.)
|
| She gave me coffee and tortillas to console my head,
|
| Prepared the slippers on my feet before she made our bed,
|
| And blew the candles, from my favorite cake,
|
| And we kissed beneath the mistletoe.
|
| And I pulled her body close to mine,
|
| I had just one chance, I whispered,
|
| «Baby will you marry me for just one dance.»
|
| Infatuation. |
| The things you say,
|
| I got scared and I left that night.
|
| 'Cuz we are livin’in a difficult time.
|
| And we’ve been walkin’down a difficult line.
|
| But put your feet up baby it’s Christmas time!
|
| Cumpleaños feliz!
|
| Happy Birthday, Guadalupe!
|
| Deck the halls with rosaries.
|
| Wish upon a Christmas tree.
|
| Silent night please come to me,
|
| Bearing gifts from my… my Mexican angel!
|
| At night I wake up cold and lonely,
|
| Burstin’at the seems,
|
| She haunts the early morning hours
|
| Of December dreams,
|
| My Guadalupe, with big brown eyes,
|
| I wanna break this spell tonight.
|
| 'Cuz we are livin’in a difficult time.
|
| And we’ve been walkin’down a difficult line.
|
| But put your feet up baby it’s Christmas time!
|
| Cumpleaños feliz!
|
| Happy Birthday, Guadalupe!
|
| Happy Birthday, Guadalupe! |
