The Trail to Mexico - Roger Wagner Chorale[00:00:00]
It was in the merry month of May[00:00:19]
When I started for Texas far away[00:00:24]
As I left my darling girl behind[00:00:29]
She said her heart was only mine[00:00:33]
When I embraced her in my arms[00:00:49]
I thought she had ten thousand charms[00:00:53]
Her caresses soft[00:00:58]
Her kisses sweet[00:01:01]
Saying[00:01:03]
We'll get married next time we meet[00:01:04]
Well it was early in the year[00:01:19]
When I volunteered to drive the steers[00:01:24]
Throught speed time three nor[00:01:29]
It was a lonesome go[00:01:31]
As the herd rolled on toward Mexico[00:01:33]
When we i got to Mexico[00:01:48]
Wish to see my girl[00:01:53]
But could not go[00:01:56]
I wrote a letter to my dear[00:01:58]
But not a word[00:02:03]
I used did I hear[00:02:05]
When I started back to my once-loved home[00:02:18]
Inquired for the girl I called my own[00:02:23]
They said she'd married a richer life[00:02:28]
Therefore cowboy seek another wife[00:02:33]
O curse your gold and your silver[00:02:48]
Too[00:02:51]
God pity a girl who want be true[00:02:53]
I'll travel West where the bullets fly[00:02:58]
I'll stay on the trail till the day I die[00:03:03]
