Song Lyrics

South Of The Border (Down Mexico Way

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 never
stay.
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 love had its gay
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 manana,
never dreaming that we were parting.
And I lied as I whispered manana, for our
tomorrow never came.
South of the border, I rode back one day
There in a veil of white by THE
candlelight, she KNELT to pray.
The mission bells told me,that I
musn`t stay oh no no
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)
And she sighed as I wispered manana
never dreaming that we were parting
and I lied for I wispered manana for towmorrow never came
South of the border
I rolled back one day
there in vain of white she knealt to pray
The mission bells told me that I musn`t stay oh no no
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)
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay (Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay)
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay (Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay)
