Down Mexico Way (South of the Border) |
Ai-ai-ai-ai |
Oh-oh-oh-oh |
Si-ai-ai-ai |
Oh-oh-oh-oh |
South of the border |
Down Mexico way |
That’s where I fell in love |
When stars above came out to play |
And now as I wonder |
My thoughts ever stray |
South of the border |
Down Mexico way |
She was the picture |
In old Spanish lace |
Just for a tender while |
I kissed the smile |
Upon her face |
For it was siesta |
And we were so gay |
South of the border |
Down Mexico way |
Then she sighed as she whispered manana |
Never dreaming that we were parting |
And I lied as I whisperd manana |
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 missionbells told me |
That I musn’t stay |
South of the border |
Down Mexico way |
Ai-ai-ai-ai |
Oh-oh-oh-oh |
