Lyrics

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 wonder - my thoughts ever stray South of the border - down Mexico way

She was a picture - in old Spanish lace And just for a tender while, I kissed a smile - upon her face For it was fiesta - and we were so gay South of the border - Mexico way

Those mission bells told me that I must not stray South of the border - down Mexico way
