Lyrics:

South of the border (down mexico way)



South of the border, down mexico way.

Thats 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

(its actually 'we were so gay,' but Im 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

Shouldnt 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.
