《Pancho and Lefty》歌词

[00:00:00] Pancho and Lefty - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)/Willie Nelson (威利·纳尔逊)

[00:00:24] Livin' on the road my friend

[00:00:28] Is gonna keep you free and clean

[00:00:32] And now you wear your skin like iron

[00:00:36] And your breath is hard as kerosene

[00:00:40] Weren't you mamma's only boy

[00:00:43] Her favorite one it seems

[00:00:48] She began to cry when you said

[00:00:51] Good-bye sank to your dream

[00:01:01] Poncho was a bandit boy

[00:01:05] His horse was fast as polished steel

[00:01:09] He wore his gun outside his pants

[00:01:13] For all the honest world to feel

[00:01:17] Poncho met his match you know

[00:01:20] On the deserts down in Mexico

[00:01:24] Nobody heard his dyin' word

[00:01:31] Oh but that's the way it goes

[00:01:37] All the Federales they say

[00:01:41] They could have had him any day

[00:01:45] They only let him slip away

[00:01:51] Out of kindness I suppose

[00:01:57] Lefty he can't sing the blues

[00:02:03] All night long like he used to

[00:02:07] The dust that Poncho bit down South

[00:02:10] Ended up in Lefty's mouth

[00:02:13] The day they lay poor Poncho low

[00:02:17] Lefty split for Ohio

[00:02:21] Where he got the bread to go

[00:02:28] There ain't nobody knows

[00:02:34] All the Federales they say

[00:02:38] We could have had him any day

[00:02:42] We only let him slip away

[00:02:48] Out of kindness I suppose

[00:02:49] The poets tell how Poncho fell

[00:03:24] And Lefty's livin' in cheap hotels

[00:03:28] The desert's quiet Cleveland's cold

[00:03:32] And so the story ends we're told

[00:03:36] Poncho needs your prayers it's true

[00:03:40] Save a few for Lefty too

[00:03:43] He only did what he had to do

[00:03:49] And now he's growin' old

[00:03:56] All the Federales they say

[00:04:00] We could have had him any day

[00:04:04] They only let him go so long

[00:04:10] Out of kindness I suppose

[00:04:11] A few gray Federales they say

[00:04:21] Could have had him any day

[00:04:25] We only let him go so long

[00:04:30] Out of kindness I suppose
