skip gorman - trail to mexico lyrics

Loading...

i made up my mind to change my ways
to leave my crowd that was so gay
to leave my native home awhile
and travel west for many a mile

’twas in the year of ’83
that a. j. stinson hired me;
he said, “young man, how’d you like to go
and trail my herd into mexico?”

it was early in that year
we started south with all them steers;
i tell you, boys, it was a lonesome ol’ go
when we trailed the herd into mexico

when we arrived in mexico
i wrote to the gal who loved me so;
i wrote a letter to my dear
but no return word did i ever hear

so, i started back to my once+loved home
inquirin’ for the gal whom i adored
she said, “young man, i wed in july;
therefore, young fella, you must take another wife.”

curse the gold and silver, too
and curse the gal who won’t be true;
i’ll head right back to the rio grande
and get me a job in a cowboy band
oh, buddy, oh, buddy, please don’t go
and don’t you ever leave your home
if you know a girl more true than i
please don’t go where the bullets fly

oh, i know girls more true than you
and i know gals who won’t be true;
i’ll head right back where the bullets fly
stay on the cow trail till the day i die
