Emmylou Harris
Elvira
[Verse 1]
Well tonight I'm gonna meet her at Hungry House Cafe
And I'm gonna give her all the lovin' I can
She's gonna jump and holler 'cause I saved up two dollars
And we're gonna search and find that preacher man

[Chorus]
Elvira, Elvira
My heart's on fire-a, Elvira

[Verse 2]
She's got eyes that look like heaven and lips like-a cherry wine
And sure knows how to make a real poor boy feel fine
Yeah. she's gonna jump and holler 'cause I saved up two dollars
We're gonna search and find that preacher man

[Chorus]
Elvira, Elvira
My heart's on fire-a for Elvira

[Post-Chorus]
She said giddy up, oom pa pa, oom pa pa, mow mow
Giddy up, oom pa pa, oom pa pa mow mow
Hi yo silver away

[Piano and Guitar Solos]
[Verse 1]
Well tonight I'm gonna meet her at Hungry House Cafe
And I'm gonna give her all the lovin' I can, yeah
Well she's gonna jump and holler 'cause I saved up two dollars
And we're gonna search and find that preacher man

[Chorus]
Elvira, Elvira
My heart's on fire-a for Elvira
Elvira, Elvira
My heart's on fire-a for Elvira
What'd she say?

[Post-Chorus]
Giddy up, oom pa pa, oom pa pa, mow mow
Giddy up, oom pa pa, oom pa pa mow mow
Hi yo silver away, yeah yeah
