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.
