Once I strayed
'Neath the window of a lovely senorita
And she smiled
While I softly played my penny serenade
Si, si, si
You can hear it for a penny
Si, si, si
Just a penny serenade
In her eyes
Shone the tender dawn of love and sweet surrender
As for me
In my heart I played a lover's serenade
Si, si, si
Hear my love song for a penny
Si, si, si
Just a penny serenade
For that night so divine she was mine
No word had been spoken
When I woke from my dream she was gone
My poor heart was broken
Still I pray
That wherever she may be she will remember
In her heart
She will always hear my penny serenade
Si, si, si
Hear my love song for a penny
Si, si, si
Just a penny serenade
