Lyrics South of the Border - Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass
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,?
manana?
Never
dreaming
that
we
were
parting
And
I
lied
as
a
whispered,?
manana?
′Cause
our
tomorrow
never
came
South
of
the
border,
I
jumped
back
one
day
There
in
a
veil
of
white,
by
the
candlelight,
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
