The Kingston Trio — Adios Farewell lyrics

Lyrics

Adios, farewell, goodbye, Majicita. My love for you was never my crime.
Adios, farewell, goodbye, Senorita.
I’ll need the love of a man in his prime.
(2, 3, 4) I’ll leave the love of a man in his prime.
I’m a rambler and a gambler, a get rich quick scrambler. I follow the laws that
I make own my own.
Had to run to, take my gun to South of the border but I’m not the kind who can
live all alone.
Just a ridin' and a-hidin', my time I was bidin' till I met my love in a small
village square.
Took her off right beside me with nothing to guide me. Nothin' but stars
shinin' down in her hair.
Like a fool I adored her, took her back to the border so we could be married
till death do us part,
But the posse was a-waitin' and the wild gun of Satan shattered the love in my poor darlin’s heart.
