Mano's Story

His name is Manolito, Mano to us.

He can be a cad, a rogue, a cuss.

Heir to a fortune, he's not sure he wants.

He could be royalty, but his father he taunts.

Don Sebastian expects refinement in a son.

Mano likes drinking, women, and fun.

He likes being a cowboy, to his father's chagrin.

He's very brave and loyal to his friends.

He owns only his horse, his clothes, and his boots.

When he tells a story, it's not always truth.

When we first met him, he stole a horse.

All was forgiven in time, of course.

He flirts with the girls, all shapes and sizes.

He brings them gifts and other surprises.

The women accept his wandering ways.

They hope to catch him one of these days.

He's an asset to the ranch for he speaks many tongues.

He laughs when there's danger and would never run.

He works only as hard as he must.

He usually gets by on good looks and luck.

He loves his sister and will always protect her.

He's loyal to her and submits to her lectures.

He's a good-looking fellow who can disarm,

Any woman who falls for his charm.

We love our Mano but away he'll go

When he hears a feminine "Mano-leeeee-to!"
