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 dead march as you carry me along |
| Take me to the green valley they’ll lay the sod o’er me |
| For I’m a young cowboy and I know I’ve done wrong |
| Once in a saddle I used to go dashing once in a saddle I used to go gay |
| First to the courthouse and lay down the roses |
| 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 they’ll lay the sod o’er me |
| For I’m a young cowboy and I know I’ve done wrong |
| Please beat the drum slowly… |
