Mexicali rose, stop cryin' I'll come back to you some sunny day Every night, you know that I'll be pining Every hour of year while I'm away Dry those big brown eyes and smile, dear Banish all those tears and please don't cry Kiss me once again and hold me Mexicali rose, goodbye Mexicali rose, I'm leavin' Don't be blue Mexicali rose, stop grievin' I love you While a dove of love is wingin' Through the blue All the castles we've been building Will come true Dry those big brown eyes and smile, dear Banish all those tears and please don't cry Kiss me once again and hold me Mexicali rose, goodbye
