South of the border, down
Mexico way
That's where
I fell in love, when the stars above came out to play
And now as
I wander, my thoughts ever stray
South of the border, down
Mexico way
She was a picture in old
Spanish lace
Just for a tender while
I kissed a smile upon her face '
Cause it was fiesta and we were so gay
South of the border,
Mexico way
Then she sighed as she whispered, manana[?]
Never dreaming that we were parting
And I lied as a whispered, manana[?] '
Cause our tomorrow never came
South of the border,
I jumped back one day
There in a veil of white, by the candlelight, she knelt to pray
The mission bells told me that
I mustn't stay
South of the border,
Mexico way
The mission bells told me, ding, dong, that
I must not stay
Stay South of the border, down
Mexico way
