(As recorded by Patsy Cline 8/25/61)
3
South of the border, down Mexico way
4
That's where they fell in love
5
When stars above
6
Came out to play
7
And now as they wander, their thoughts ever stray
8
South of the border, down Mexico way
9
She was a picture in old Spanish lace
10
Just for a tender while
11
He kissed the smile
12
Upon her face
13
For it was "Fiesta" and they were so gay
14
South of the border, down Mexico way
15
Then she sighed as she whispered "mañana"
16
Never dreaming that they were parting
17
And he lied as he whispered "mañana"
18
For that tomorrow never came
19
South of the border, he rode back one day
20
There in a veil of white
21
By candlelight
22
She knelt to pray
23
The mission bells told him that he mustn't stay
24
South of the border, down Mexico way
25
Ay-ay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay-ay
26
Ay-ay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay-ay
