Adios Farewell by The Kingston Trio Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1962

[Chorus]
Adios, farewell, goodbye, Majicita
My love for you was never my crime
Adios, farewell, goodbye, Senorita
I'll leave the love of a man in his prime

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Adios, farewell, goodbye, Majicita
My love for you was never my crime
Adios, farewell, goodbye, Senorita
I'll leave the love of a man in his prime

[Verse 2]
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
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
Adios, farewell, goodbye, Majicita
My love for you was never my crime
Adios, farewell, goodbye, Senorita
I'll leave the love of a man in his prime

[Outro]
Adios to love that died in it's prime
