Mexicali Rose, stop crying   I'll come back to you, some sunny day   Every night you'll know that I'll be pining   Every hour a year while I'm away      Dry those big brown eyes and smile, dear   Vanish all those tears and please don't cry   Kiss me once again and hold me   Mexicali Rose, goodbye      I'll come back to you, some sunny day      Every hour a year while I'm away      Dry those big brown eyes and smile, dear   Vanish all those tears and please don't cry   Kiss me once again and hold me   Mexicali Rose, goodbye
