South of the border, down Mexico way. |
|
That's where I fell in love where stars above, came out to play. |
|
And now as I wonder, my thoughts ever stray. |
|
South of the border, down Mexico way. |
|
|
|
She was a picture, in old spanish ways. |
|
Just for a tender while I kissed the smile, upon her face. |
|
For it was fiesta, and love had it's day. |
|
South of the border, down Mexico way. |
|
|
|
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay (Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay) |
|
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay (Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay) |
|
|
|
Then she sighed as she whispered manyana, never dreaming that we were parting. |
|
And I lied as I whispered manyana, for our tomorrow never came. |
|
|
|
South of the border, I rode back one day. |
|
There in a veil of white by candlelight, she kneeled to pray. |
|
The mission bells told me, that I shouldn't stay. |
|
South of the border, down Mexico way. |
|
|
|
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay (Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay) |
|
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay (Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay) |
|
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay (Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay) |
|
Good bye good bye. |
