joe ely – letter to laredo lyrics
as i was riding across the mississippi stopped there and i cried
no use for a man to keep a mighty river all dammed up inside
i jumped bail from the sweet water county, now i’m on the run
on my head is a five number bounty, for a crime i never done
take this letter to laredo, to one i love
tell her to stay low, beneath the stars above
her love is my only alibi, it’s for her love i lied
yeah, yeah, yeah
why did frankie have to pull that trigger? why did you have to hide?
sheriff still thinks i was standing with her, it’s for her love i lied
love will make a free man a prisoner, make an honest man lie
love can be tough, love can be tender, it’s my only alibi
take this letter to laredo, to one i love
tell her to stay low, beneath the stars above
her love is my only alibi, it’s for her love i lied
yeah, yeah, yeah
take this letter to laredo, to the one i love
tell her to stay low beneath the stars above
her love is my only alibi, it’s for her love i lied
yeah, yeah
take this letter to laredo
tell her to stay low
her love is my only alibi
it’s for her love i lied
yeah, yeah
take this letter to laredo
hey, hey, hey, hey
