The Kingston Trio

Farewell Adelita

Adelita, 'tis time we remembered

That only one hour more and I must go

To the hills of Sierra del Prado

For the glory of our Mexico

Oh, Adelita, promise you'll remember

The happy hours that now have long gone by

Oh, Adelita, we'll share these tender moments

Adelita, it hurts me when you cry

Adelita, the time is here to leave you

Once again, now, I'll kiss away your tears

In my heart I will hold you forever

And our love, it will live through the years

Oh, Adelita, promise you'll remember

The happy hours that now have long gone by

Oh, Adelita, we'll share these tender moments

Adelita, it hurts me when you cry
