Lyrics
Sierra, Sierra Madre
Mother of mountains reaching up to the sky
Holding the secret of strange adventures
Of treasure seekers such as I
Refrain
I looked for the treasure of Sierra Madre
From the tales that were told
There were mountains of gold buried there
I looked for the treasure of Sierra Madre
When a soft echo came
And it carried your name through the air
I didn’t find the fortune I was looking for
I didn’t find the fortune, I found much more
For you are the treasure of Sierra Madre
And your love is the gold
That I tenderly hold in my arms
