South Of The Border

South of the border Down Mexico way That's where I fell in love when stars above came out to play For it was fiesta And we were so gay South of the border Down Mexico way She was a picture In old Spanish lace And for a tender while I kissed the smile upon her face For it was fiesta And we were so gay South of the border Down Mexico way South of the border I rode back one day There in a veil of white by candlelight she knelt to pray The mission bells told me That I mustn'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!
