South Of The Border Lyrics
South Of The Border - Al Bowlly
South of the border down Mexico way
That's where I fell in love where the stars above
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 a smile upon her face
Cause it was fiesta and we were so gay
South of the border down Mexico way
Then she sad as she whispered mayna
Never dreaming that we were parting
And I lied as a whispered mayna
Cause our tomorrow never came
South of the border I roll back one day
There in a veil of white by candle light
She knelt to pray
The mission bells told me that I musn't stay
South of the border down Mexico way
Down Mexico way
