  • My little Mexican woman got herself a hot little body
    That little sweet senorita knows how to be the life of the party
    We dance and we talk, hold hands when we walk
    Shoot tequila all night long
    She can't understand why this ramblin' man says
    It's time to be movin' on

    My little Sweet Georgia Peach, she sure knows
    How to show me a good time
    She's got the longest legs, I swear they're smoother
    Than her daddy's moonshine
    (That's smooth)

    We eat her momma's fry chicken and go skinny dippin'
    Drink whole beer all night long
    She don't understand when this ramblin' man says
    It's time to be movin' on

    I got places to be, I got people to see
    Got both ends of the candle to burn
    But I'll try to hurry, so girls, don't you worry
    I promise you I shall return

    My little Miami friend with that cinnamon skin
    Oh, she's so fine
    (Sure is)
    She always laps up my nap [Incomprehensible]
    Out of sunshine

    Man, we work on our tents, roll around in the sand
    Took Bacardi all night long
    She don't understand when this ramblin' man says
    It's time to be movin' on

    I got places to be, I got people to see
    Got both ends of the candle to burn
    But I'll try to hurry, so girls, don't you worry
    I promise you I shall return

    I got places to be, I got people to see
    Got both ends of the candle to burn
    But I'll try to hurry, so girls, don't you worry
    I promise you I shall return
    No, don't worry girls, I shall return
