The Streets of Laredo |
As I walked out in the streets of Laredo |
As I walked out in Laredo one day |
I saw a young cowboy, all dressed in white linen |
Dressed in white linen, as cold as the clay |
So, beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly |
Play the Death March as you carry me along |
Take me to the green valley, there lay the sod over me |
For I’m a young cowboy and I know I’ve done wrong |
Once in the saddle I used to go dashing |
Once in the saddle I used to go gay |
First to the cardhouse and then down to Rosy’s |
But I’m shot in the breast and I’m dyin' today |
Bring sixteen tall cowboys to carry my casket |
Ten pretty women to sing me a song |
Take me to the green valley, there lay the sod over me |
For I’m a young cowboy and I know I’ve done wrong |
Please, beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly |
Play the Death March as you carry me along |
Take me to the green valley, there lay the sod over me |
For I’m a young cowboy and I known I’ve done wrong |
