I met her in old Monterey on a night that was filled
with romance
We listened to violins play sweet music that have us
in trance
I knew you were mine from the start your eyes were
mischeated and gay
As I kissed my Rose of the border that night down in
old Monterey
Let's go manana one night with a lifetime to live
Sweet primadona (my heart wanted only to give)
I won't forget you your though duty forbids me to stay
I'll be that you call when the first petals fall on my
Rose down in old Monterey

Let's go manana one night...
