Текст Chris Isaak – South Of The Border (Down Mexico Way)

South of the border, down Mexico way.
That’s where I fell in love where 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 the smile upon her face.
For it was fiesta, and love had its day
South of the border, down Mexico way.

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

Then she sighed as she whispered, «Mañana,»
Never dreaming that we were parting.
And 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 candlelight, she knelt to pray.
The mission bells told me that I shouldn’t stay
South 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)

Good-bye, good-bye.
