Down by the mission
San Miguel is a great house
Wherein dwell Don Carlos
And la Doña Maria Elena Cantrell

I work at the ranch, I saddle her mare
I ride with a gun behind as she visits her friends here and there
She says, thank you, Manuel or Manuel, por favor
Or good evening, Manuel, la Doña Maria Elena Cantrell

I dream of the mission San Miguel
And it says to me, the mission bell
She is married, Manuel, the wife of the rancher
Don Carlos Cantrell

You serve at the ranch, you hold her chair
You carry her boxes, trunks, letters, and books here and there

But I hear with my heart
What she says with her eyes with
Good evening, Manuel or Manuel, por favor
Or the carriage, Manuel or Manuel, close the door
