《Matamoros》歌词

[00:00:00] Matamoros - Billy Walker

[00:00:15] In old Mexico I stand on the square in Matamoros

[00:00:23] Round a Plaza the couples are walking to music so sweet

[00:00:30] I found my love not too long ago in Matamoros

[00:00:38] But I'm feeling low as the beggar who sits in the street

[00:00:45] Oh the promises that she made me with eyes black as midnight

[00:00:53] How could I know how fickle her promise could be

[00:01:00] Now I'm back to find what I feel is mine in Matamoros

[00:01:08] And there'll be bad trouble if I catch her cheating on me

[00:01:15] Streets are narrow and dark and tequilla runs free in Matamoros

[00:01:23] I stopped for one moment outside of Miguel's swinging door

[00:01:30] My heart breaks to hear the same haunting sounds of Granada

[00:01:37] She once called it our song and vowed should be mine evermore

[00:01:45] Then across the square went this wild young vaquero I see her

[00:01:52] Laughing and dancing and tossing her raven black hair

[00:02:00] They may take a hand when I face this man from Matamoros

[00:02:07] For the love of my woman is one thing that I'll never share

[00:02:29] Now I walk in the night far away from the lights of Matamoros

[00:02:37] And recall the last moments when I knew she loved me more than life

[00:02:44] I can still hear her cry "I love you and I'll prove it Manana "

[00:02:52] Then seeing my danger she jumped in front of his knife

[00:02:59] I know the stories they'll tell in the dim lit casinos

[00:03:06] Of the raven haired beauty who for her love laid dead on the floor

[00:03:14] They'll speak of the fight with the gringo that night in Matamoros

[00:03:22] And wonder what happened for he never returned anymore

[00:03:27] Oh oh hoo
