Lyrics:
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 thought ever stray South of the border down Mexico way. She was a picture in old Spanish lace Just for a tender while I kissed the smile upon her face for it was Fiesta and we were so gay South of the border down Mexico way. Then She sighed as she whispered manana Never dreaming that we were parting And I lied when I whispered manana For our tomorrow never came, South of the border I rode back one day There in a veil of of white By candle light she knelt to pray The mission bells told me That I mustn't stray South of the border down Mexico way. Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! |
