your life is in danger.

My life? Ha, ha.

What is my life, after all?

The warm breath

of a few summers...

and the cold chill

of a few winters and then-

By golly, I think

I need a drink, huh?

- [ Giggling ]

- [ Laughing ]

Elenita. Elenita.

Excuse me.

I come for my baby.

This your baby?

- I go bring him- her- I bring it

to you right away. - Gracias, seor.

[ Both Speaking Spanish ]

- How much you take for him in gold?

- [ Speaking Spanish ]

What you say?

Ha, ha. She say

she only got seven others.

She cannot part

with this fellow.

Ah, look at him.

Oh, he is so sweet.

The most precious things in the world

cannot be bought with gold.

The tender touch

of a little baby's fingers...

the light in the woman's eyes

and the love in a woman's heart.

That-

Maybe you better

take him, huh?

- Where the devil's this Tonia Maria?

- [ Tonia Maria Shouts ]

Uh, get my horse, pronto.

[ Speaking Spanish ]

- You see soldier?

- Yeah. He smart-aleck. Stuck on himself.

I hate that kind of man.

You make eyes at him?

Oh, you hurt my feelings.

Oh, well, I am sorry.

Oh, you go away so soon?

I must go to work.

- Come on, hold out the hand.

- S.

Plenty of gold for

mi enamorada.

Gracias.

All right.

That is why I like to work so hard.

So I can buy pretty things

for my gal.

Where you go this time?

I know where there is lots

of cattle on the Guadalupe.

Soon I get rich.

Then we go far across

the sea to Portugal. Hmm.

Yeah, that is

beautiful place- Portugal.

Nowhere is the sea

so blue like the sky.

Nowhere is the rose so red, and

nowhere is the south wind so soft.

Of course, you got to remember

I see this place when I was a kid.

Every place look good to kid.

Maybe I don't like Portugal.

Maybe I not be happy there.

Ah. Then we go

wherever you want.

But first,

you got to be happy always.

That is what I say to myself.

- When you come back? Soon?

- Uh, I don't know. Maybe I come back very quick.

Sometimes in my business,

I have to go places very quick.

Well, good-bye, my sweetheart.

I always like to

see you wave to me...

when I ride away.

[ Chuckles ]

Good-bye, my sweetheart. Good-bye.

- You bring me something?

- I always bring you something when I come back.

Here. Good-bye.

Ah, Conejito.

Adis.

Adis, my Conejito.!

My Conejito. Portugal.

Well, finally

you got a kiss, eh?

That should last you

the rest of your life.

Say, it's funny.

What you think men like, huh?

- Big fat cows?

- I think men like...

big armful of woman.

You? You so small, take three or four

of you to give man appetite.

You crazy.

I get any man I want.

just now, down at saloon, a soldier,

he threw himself at my feet.

- Fine American soldier.

- Hmm?

A officer.

A general, he was.

He look at me

and he say-

[ Kissing Sound ]

"Dios.

"What a beautiful figura

that girl, he has got.

"I would walk over broken glass

in my bare feet...

for just one of her kisses. "

That's what he say.

He must have been drunk.

[ Chuckles ]

Drunk? Yes, he was drunk.

- With love. [ Giggling ]

- [ Gasping ]

He say to me, "If you

do not let me love you...

I will kill myself. "

[ Dunn ] Well,you're not gonna let me

kill myself,are you, baby?

[ Laughs ]

I am so sorry.

We were just playing a little game.

- Won't you come in?

- Will I?

Can a duck swim, huh?

[ Chuckles ]

Who's the old girl?

[ Chuckles ]

That is my cook.

Cook?

Is she up on Irish stew?

We will excuse you.

Cook! Dios mo, what next?

[ Both Chuckling ]

She is very bashful.

You don't mind?

Not at all, not at all.

Well, finally you change your mind,
