Arranger:Nelson Riddle
Artist:Frank Sinatra/Band Chorus

South of the border - down Mexico way
That's where I fell in love, where 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 old Spanish lace
Just for a tender while, I kissed a smile - upon her face
'Cause it was fiesta - and we were so gay
South of the border - Mexico way

Then she smiled as she whispered 'manjanna'
Never dreaming that we were parting
Then I lied as a whispered 'manjanna'
'Cause our tomorrow never came

South of the border - I jumped back one day
There in a veil of white, by the candle light - she knelt to
pray
The mission bells told me (ding-dong) - that I musn't stay
South of the border - Mexico way
