A Gal In Calico - Miles Davis, Red Garland, Oscar Pettiford

Met a gal in calico, down in Santa Fe

Used to be her Sunday beau till I rode away

Do I want her, do I want her love?

Yes sire

Will I win her, will I win her love, wait and see

Workin' with a rodeo, go from town to town

See most every kind a gal, every kind a gown

But who made my heart sing, yippee yi, yippee yo

My little gal in calico

I take my gal in calico, down in Santa Fe

Guess I better let her know that I feel this way

Is she waitin', is she waitin', she better be

Am I hopin' to be ropin' her, yes sire

Gonna quit the rodeo, gonna settle down

Buy a bolt of calico for a weddin' gown

Then will I fence her in yippee yi!

yippee yo

My little gal in calico, little gal in calico
