New Mexico |
It’s was out in ol' west Texas in the spring of '83 |
That a fancy cow grover came a steppin' up to me |
Sayin' how do you do young fella and how’d you like to go |
And spend one summer drivin' on the trail to New Mexico |
Now I wadn’t a workin' so to the grover I did say |
A goin' out to Mexico depends upon the pay |
If you’ll pay me good wages and a horse and a saddle too |
I think Sir I would go with you and stay the summer through |
My pleasures all ended and my troubles soon began |
The first storm that hit us when the cattle oh they ran |
While runnin' through thorn and stickers there was some’um' we didn’t know |
The Injuns were a watchin' us from the hills of Mexico |
The Indians rustled the cattle and the grover well he didn’t pay |
Before we knew what happened he’d up and rode away |
So go home to your wife and children boy tell others not to go |
To that forsaken country they call New Mexico |
To that forsaken country they call New Mexico |
To that forsaken country they call New Mexico |
To that forsaken country… |
