At Fiesta of Cinco de Mayo he asked for my hand
But I was too young and afraid of a gold wedding band
I guess I was restless and blinded by stars in my eyes
Oh foolish me I couldn't see
What I'd found neath those wide open skies

Ay yi yi yi ay yi yi yi
South of the border somewhere in Sonora
There's someone I'm longing to see
Ay yi yi yi ay yi yi yi
That sweet caballero out on his ranchero
I hope is still waiting for me
[ horn ]
I spent all of my days searching for something I'd never find
Night after night I just couldn't get him off my mind
He's everything I've ever needed and I'm going home
Adios to this city this city of no corizone

Ay yi yi yi ay yi yi yi...
Ay yi yi yi ay yi yi yi...
