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 no comma 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 the
Smile no comma upon her face
For it was fiesta, and love had its day
(It's actually "we were so gay," but I'm assuming you know that
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 no comma 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
