Ah
Oh, tell him about it, George
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 ol' 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
Then she sighed as she whispered "Mañana"
Never dreamin' that we were partin'
But I lied as I whispered "Mañana"
For our tomorrow never came
South of the border, I rode back one day
There in a veil of white by candle-light, she knelt to pray
The mission bells told me that I mustn't stay
South of the border, down Mexico way
Oh, yeah
That's pretty boy
Wanna know now, Fiddler
What's that playing out there, Fiddler Ray?
Why, that's Larry franklin
Uh-huh
That's what I thought
Oh, yeah
Then she sighed as she whispered "Mañana"
Never dreamin' that we were partin'
But I lied as I whispered "Mañana"
For our tomorrow never came!
South of the border, I rode back one day
There in a veil of white by candle-light, she knelt to pray
The mission bells told me that I mustn't stay
South of the border, down Mexico way
Ay, ya, ya, ya
Ay, ya, ya, ya
Ay, ya, ya, ya
Ay, ya, ya, ya
Ay, ya, ya, ya
Ay, ya, ya, ya
Ay, ya, ya, ya
Ay, ya, ya, ya, oh
