will dudley - streets of laredo lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
as i walked out in the streets of laredo
as i walked out in laredo one day
i spied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linen
he was wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay

[verse 2]
“oh, i see by your outfit that you are a cowboy”
these words he did say as i slowly walked by
“come sit down beside me and hear my sad story
for i am shot in the chest and i know i must die”

[verse 3]
“it was once in the saddle, i used to go dashing
once in the saddle, i used to go g+y
it was first down to rosie’s and then to card house
now i’m shot in the chest, and i’m dyin’ today”

[verse 4]
“so gather around me now, six fair young maidens
six jolly cowboys to carry me along
take me to the green valley and lay the sod o’er me
for i’m a young cowboy and i know i’ve done wrong”

[verse 5]
so, we beat the drum slowly and play the pipes lowly
we all sang the death march as we carried him along
for we all loved our comrade, so brave, young, and handsome
we all loved our comrade even though he’d done wrong
[instrumental break]

[verse 1]
as i walked out in the streets of laredo
as i walked out in laredo one day
i spied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linens
wrapped in white linens as cold as the clay

[outro]
he was wrapped in white linens as cold as the clay
