Pancho and Lefty - Johnny Bush[00:00:00]
Composer:Johnny Bush[00:00:14]
Living on the road my friend[00:00:29]
Was gonna keep you free and clean[00:00:33]
Now you wear your skin like iron[00:00:36]
Your breath's as hard as kerosene[00:00:39]
You weren't your momma's only boy[00:00:42]
But her favorite one it seems[00:00:45]
She began to cry when you said goodbye[00:00:48]
And sank into your dreams[00:00:53]
Pancho was a bandit boys[00:00:59]
His horse was fast as polished steel[00:01:01]
Wore his gun outside his pants[00:01:05]
For all the honest world to feel[00:01:08]
Pancho met his match you know[00:01:11]
On the deserts down in Mexico[00:01:14]
Nobody heard his dying words[00:01:17]
Oh[00:01:22]
That's the way it goes[00:01:23]
All the federales say[00:01:28]
They could have had him any day[00:01:31]
They only let him hang around[00:01:34]
Out of kindness I suppose[00:01:39]
Lefty he can't sing the blues[00:01:45]
All night long like he used to[00:01:48]
The dust that Pancho bit down south[00:01:51]
Ended up in lefty's mouth[00:01:54]
The day they laid poor pancho low[00:01:57]
Lefty split for ohio[00:02:01]
Where he got the bread to go[00:02:04]
There ain't nobody knows[00:02:09]
All the federales say[00:02:14]
They could have had him any day[00:02:17]
Only let him slip away[00:02:20]
Out of kindness I suppose[00:02:25]
The poets tell how pancho fell[00:03:01]
Lefty's living in a cheap hotel[00:03:04]
The desert's quiet Cleveland's cold[00:03:07]
So the story ends we're told[00:03:10]
Pancho needs your prayers it's true[00:03:13]
But save a few for lefty too[00:03:17]
He just did what he had to do[00:03:20]
Now he's growing old[00:03:25]
A few gray federales say[00:03:30]
They could have had him any day[00:03:33]
Only let him go so wrong[00:03:36]
Out of kindness I suppose[00:03:42]
A few gray federales say[00:03:47]
They could have had him any day[00:03:50]
They only let him go so wrong[00:03:53]
Out of kindness I suppose[00:03:58]
