South of the Border
South of the border, down Mexico way
That's where I fell in love when stars above came out to play
And now as I wander, my thoughts ever stray
South of the border down Mexico way
She was the 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 down Mexico way
Then she smiled as she whispered mañana
Never dreaming that we were parting
And I lied as a whispered mañana
'Cause our tomorrow never came
South of the border, I rode back one day
There in a veil of white, by candle light she knelt to pray
The mission bells told me that I mustn't stay
South of the border down Mexico way
Down Mexico way
That's where I fell in love when stars above came out to play
And now as I wander, my thoughts ever stray
South of the border down Mexico way
She was the 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 down Mexico way
Then she smiled as she whispered mañana
Never dreaming that we were parting
And I lied as a whispered mañana
'Cause our tomorrow never came
South of the border, I rode back one day
There in a veil of white, by candle light she knelt to pray
The mission bells told me that I mustn't stay
South of the border down Mexico way
Down Mexico way
