I believe if your yum is appropiatly configured centos 5.4 you could
install yum-utils and do something like the following or similar:

#$ yumdownloader --source mysql-server
#$ rpm -ivhp just-downloaded-rpm

Or you could also browse http://mirror.centos.org/ for the source rpm

But if you insist and dont want the source for the very mysql provided
by centos 5.4 you could browse mysql.com (or org maybe):

http://www.mysql.com/downloads/mysql
not too far from the top is a drop down box - select "source code" and
that will lead to sources.
