| Farewell to the lights of Madera, I’m leaving with the wind at my back |
| Tell all of my friends in Dos Palos, I’m gone but I’ll be circling back |
| Now I’m crossing the Chowchilia River |
| By the light of a ragged moonbeam |
| Lord I’ll miss the Rose of San Joaquin |
| I’ll miss the sun on the Sierra Nevadas, adobe moon on the rise |
| Shining down on my love in Madera, shining into her dark Spanish eyes |
| Oh she taught me those Mexican love songs |
| «Volver, Volver» in my dreams |
| And I miss the Rose of San Joaquin |
| Caught somewhere between |
| The road and the Rose of San Joaquin |
| Oh her black hair fell on the blanket in the tall grass we with the dew |
| Making love through the night by the river |
| Oh Magdalene how my heart cries for you |
| Alone on this highway of darkness |
| You are the light of my dreams |
| And I miss the Rose of San Joaquin |
| Caught somewhere between |
| The road and the Rose of San Joaquin |
