South Of The Border (Down Mexico Way)

Al sur de la frontera, hacia MéxicoSouth of the border, down Mexico way.
Ahí es donde me enamoré donde las estrellas arriba, salieron a jugarThat's where I fell in love where stars above, came out to play.
Y ahora como me pregunto, mis pensamientos se han perdidoAnd now as I wonder, my thoughts ever stray.
Al sur de la frontera, hacia MéxicoSouth of the border, down Mexico way.

Era una foto, a la antigua manera españolaShe was a picture, in old spanish ways.
Sólo por un tierno mientras besaba la sonrisa, en su caraJust for a tender while I kissed the smile, upon her face.
Porque era fiesta, y el amor tenía su díaFor it was fiesta, and love had it's day.
Al sur de la frontera, hacia MéxicoSouth of the border, down Mexico way.

Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay (ay, ay, ay)Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay (Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay)
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay (ay, ay, ay)Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay (Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay)

Luego suspiró mientras susurraba a Manyana, sin soñar que nos separábamosThen she sighed as she whispered manyana, never dreaming that we were parting.
Y mentí mientras susurraba Manyana, porque nuestro mañana nunca llegóAnd I lied as I whispered manyana, for our tomorrow never came.

Al sur de la frontera, regresé un díaSouth of the border, I rode back one day.
Allí, en un velo de blanco a la luz de las velas, se arrodilló para orarThere in a veil of white by candlelight, she kneeled to pray.
Las campanas de la misión me dijeron que no debía quedarmeThe mission bells told me, that I shouldn't stay.
Al sur de la frontera, hacia MéxicoSouth of the border, down Mexico way.

Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay (ay, ay, ay)Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay (Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay)
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay (ay, ay, ay)Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay (Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay)
