Elvira by Rodney Crowell Lyrics
[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

Elvira, Elvira
My heart's on fire-a for Elvira
