Perry Como
It Happened In Monterey
It happened in monterey, a long time ago
I met her in monterey, in ol' mexico
Stars an' steel guitars and luscious lips as red as wine
Broke somebody's heart and I'm afraid that it was mine

It happened in monterey, without thinkin' twice
I left her an' threw away the key to paradise
My indiscreet heart, longs for a sweetheart
That I left in ol' monterey!
