Dean Martin – 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

And now as I wander, my thoughts ever stray

South of the border, down Mexico way

She was a picture, in old Spanish lace

And just for a while I kissed the smile upon her face

It was a fiesta, and we were so gay

South of the border

Down Mexico way

Then she sighed as she whispered manana

Never dreaming that we were parting

And I lied as I whispered manana

For tomorrow never came

South of the border, I came 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

Down Mexico way.
