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.
