Well I woke up, Christmas morning
And what did I see?
I saw a lovely senorita looking back at me
Named Guadalupe
With big brown eyes
Oh what did you do this time?
Made my excuses and a bee-line for the bedroom door
She was begging and pleading
Screaming "Por favor, mi cumpleaños! Stay with me, baby it's cold outside"
We are living in a difficult time
We've been walking down a difficult line
Put your feet up baby it's Christmas time
Cumpleaños feliz!
Happy Birthday, Guadalupe!
Our time will come
We both hold on
She gave me coffee and tortillas to console my head
Prepared the slippers on my feet before she made our bed
And blew the candles from my favorite cake
And we kiss beneath the mistletoe
And I pulled her body close to mine
I had just one chance
I whispered "Baby will you marry me for just one dance!"
Infatuation
The things you say
I got scared and I left that night
'Cause we are living in a difficult time
We've been walking down a difficult line
Put your feet up baby it's Christmas time
Cumpleaños feliz!
Happy Birthday, Guadalupe!
Deck the halls with rosaries
Wish upon a Christmas tree
Silent night please come to me
Bearing gifts from my... My mexican angel
At night I wake up cold and lonely
Bursting at the seams
She haunts the early morning hours of December dreams
My Guadalupe
With big brown eyes
I wanna break this spell tonight
'Cause we are living in a difficult time
And we've been walking down a difficult line
Put your feet up baby it's Christmas time
Cumpleaños feliz!
Happy Birthday, Guadalupe!
Happy Birthday, Guadalupe!
