Down Argentine Way Page #3

---

Perhaps after we have the drink.

Shall we sit down?

You're not backing out on our bargain?

I am desolate, seorita, but it is impossible

for me to sell you Carmelita.

- I suppose someone offered more money?

- Oh, no. No, it is not that, I assure you.

I could not sell you the horse

for any amount of money.

Just this evening I found out that my father

had already made a previous commitment.

But I bought the horse.

We made a deal. We agreed on it.

I should have told you a long time ago,

I know, but I did not know how to say it.

So that's what you've been building up to.

Well, I won't let it ruin my life.

Oh, no, we must not

let it ruin anything, seorita.

- We must have this last dance together, no?

- No, no. Jimmy's waiting for me.

He always keeps his engagements, seor.

- Have you ever tried a blackout?

- What is that?

Straight gin with a green olive.

I will get one right away.

Con su permiso.

I love cherries.

Two dreams met

They knew of two hearts that were lonely

That could be so happy

If only they found romance

Two dreams met

They said we must go out and find them

And then as we tiptoe behind them

- I'd like to dance with you, seor.

- You are very kind, seorita.

I'm just mad about that horse of yours.

Thank you too much.

"Turn around," my dream kept saying

I did, and you were there, then

Next month we're going up Mount Rainier

with nothing but mules.

I said next month we were going up

to Mount Rainier on mules.

- Well, what do you think of that?

- Hm? Oh, not this week, Jimmy.

Seorita.

- It is time for me to leave, so I will say adis.

- Goodbye.

I hope we'll be meeting again sometime soon.

Perdneme, seorita.

Adis. Adis.

Congratulate me, my dear. I just bought

Carmelita the champion Argentine jumper.

You bought her?

Yes. Considering your interest in the owner,

it's a wonder you didn't.

- How could I? You had a commitment.

- Commitment?

I didn't have any commitment.

I offered him 5,000 just now and he took it.

Well, that's what I offered him.

Why would he do that?

Perhaps it was my dancing, darling.

Shall we sit this one out?

"Your eyes. Your remarkable eyes."

If he ever looks into my eyes again,

he'll really see a storm over the pampas.

- What bit her?

- I don't know. Something about the pampas.

Oh, well, cheer up, Jimmy.

The pampas is a long way away.

If I'm not mistaken,

you were about to ask me to dance.

You were mistaken.

I was mistaken.

I was mistaken.

For two lonely hearts were one

Do-do-do, do-do-do-do

When two dreams met

We'll sell this one. Sell Apprentice too.

We'll keep this mare. Tendon's a little sore.

Better put a blister on her.
