South of the border
Down Mexico way
That's where they fell in love
When stars above came out to play
And now as they wander
Their thoughts ever stray
South of the border
Down Mexico way
She was a picture
In old Spanish lace
Just for a tender while
He kissed the smile upon her face
For it was Fiesta
And they were so gay
South of the border
Down Mexico way
Then she sighed as she whispered, “Mañana”
Never dreaming that they were parting
And he lied as he whispered, “Mañana”
For that tomorrow never came
South of the border
He rode back one day
There, in a veil of white, by candlelight
She knelt to pray
The mission bells told him
That he mustn't stay
South of the border
Down Mexico way
