South of the Border

South of the Border - Fats Domino (胖子多米诺)

South of the border

Down Mexico way

That's where I fell in love

When the stars

Above came out to play

And now as I wonder

Their thoughts ever stray

South of the border

Down Mexico way

She was a picture

In old Spanish lace

Just for a little while I

Kissed the smile upon her face

For it was fiesta

And we were so gay

South of the border

Down Mexico way

Then she sighed as

She whispered Manana

Never dream that we were parting

And I lied as

I whispered Manana

Cause our tomorrow never came

South of the border

I rode back one day

There in a veil of white

By candlelight

She knelt to pray

But the mission bells

Told me that

I mustn't stay

South of the border down

Mexico way

Ay

Ay

Ay

Ay
