Streets Of Laredo |
| As I walked out in the streets of Laredo |
| As I walked out in Laredo one day |
| I spied a young cowboy, wrapped all in white linen |
| Wrapped in white linen, as cold as the clay |
| Oh, beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly |
| Sing the Death March as you carry me along |
| Take me to the valley, there lay the sod o’er me |
| I’m a young cowboy and know I’ve done wrong |
| I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy |
| These words he did say as I boldly walked by |
| Come sit down beside me |
| And hear my sad story |
| Go shoot? |
| Go fetch me some water, a cool cup of water |
| To cool my parched lips |
| Then the poor cowboy said |
| Before I returned, his spirit had left him |
| Had gone to his maker, the cowboy was dead |
| Oh, beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly |
| Sing the Death March as you carry me along |
| Take me to the valley, there lay the sod o’er me |
| I’m a young cowboy and know I’ve done wrong |
