South Of The Border Lyrics

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 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, Mexico way

Then she sighed, as she whispered, "Manjanna"Herb Alpert - South Of The Border - http://motolyrics.com/herb-alpert/south-of-the-border-lyrics.html
Never dreaming that we were parting
Then I lied as a whispered, "Manjanna"
'Cause our tomorrow never came

South of the border, I jumped back one day
There in a veil of white, by the candle light she knelt to pray
The mission bells told me that I mustn't stay
South of the border, Mexico way

The mission bells told me, ding-dong that I must not stay
Stay south of the border, down Mexico way
