《Poncho and Lefty》歌词

[00:00:00] Poncho and Lefty - The Great Country Crew

[00:00:24] Living on the road my friend

[00:00:27] Gonna keep you free and clean

[00:00:31] Now you were your skin like iron

[00:00:34] And your breath's as hard as kerosene

[00:00:39] You weren't your mama's only boy

[00:00:42] But her favorite one it seems

[00:00:46] She began to cry when you said goodbye

[00:00:54] Sank to your dream

[00:00:59] Poncho was a bandit boy

[00:01:03] His horse was fast as polished steel

[00:01:07] He wore his gun outside his pants

[00:01:11] For all the honest world to feel

[00:01:15] Poncho met his match you know

[00:01:18] On the deserts down in Mexico

[00:01:22] Nobody heard his dyin' word

[00:01:29] But that's the way it goes

[00:01:35] All the Federals they say

[00:01:39] They could have had him any day

[00:01:43] They only let him slip away

[00:01:49] Out of kindness I suppose

[00:01:56] Lefty he can't sing the blues

[00:01:59] All night long like he used to

[00:02:03] The dust that Poncho bit down south

[00:02:07] Ended up in Lefty's mouth

[00:02:11] The day they lay poor Poncho low

[00:02:15] Lefty split for Ohio

[00:02:19] Where he got the bread to go

[00:02:25] There ain't nobody knows

[00:02:31] All the Federals they say

[00:02:35] We could have had him any day

[00:02:39] We only let him slip away

[00:02:45] Out of kindness I suppose

[00:03:18] The poets tell how Poncho fell

[00:03:22] Lefty's livin' in cheap hotels

[00:03:25] The desert's quiet Cleveland's cold

[00:03:29] And so the story ends we're told

[00:03:33] Poncho needs your prayers

[00:03:35] It's true save a few for Lefty too

[00:03:41] He only did what he had to do

[00:03:48] Now he's growin' old

[00:03:53] All the Federals they say

[00:03:57] We could have had him any day

[00:04:01] They only let him go so long

[00:04:07] Out of kindness I suppose

[00:04:14] A few grey Federals they say

[00:04:18] We could have had him any day

[00:04:21] We only let him go so long

[00:04:27] Out of kindness I suppose
