Me And My Uncle - Grateful Dead[00:00:00]
Me and my uncle went riding down [00:00:08]
South Colorado West Texas bound [00:00:13]
We stopped over in Santa Fe [00:00:17]
That being the point just about half way [00:00:21]
You know it was the hottest part of the day [00:00:27]
I took the horses up to the stall [00:00:32]
Went to the barroom ordered drinks for all [00:00:37]
Three days in the saddle you know my body hurt [00:00:41]
It being summer I took off my shirt [00:00:45]
And I tried to wash off some of that dusty dirt [00:00:50]
West Texas cowboys they's all around [00:00:56]
With liquor and money they loaded down [00:01:01]
So soon after payday know it seemed a shame;[00:01:05]
You know my uncle he starts a friendly game [00:01:09]
High-low jack and the winner take the hand [00:01:14]
My uncle starts winning; cowboys got sore [00:01:44]
One of them called him and then two more [00:01:49]
Accused him of cheating; Oh no it couldn't be [00:01:53]
I know my uncle he's as honest as me [00:01:57]
And I'm as honest as a gambling man can be [00:02:02]
One of them cowboys he starts to draw [00:02:08]
And I shot him down Lord he never saw [00:02:12]
Shot me another oh damn he won't grow old [00:02:17]
In the confusion my uncle grabbed the gold [00:02:22]
And we high-tailed it down to Mexico [00:02:26]
I love those cowboys I love their gold [00:02:32]
I loved my uncle God rest his soul [00:02:37]
Taught me good Lord Taught me all I know[00:02:41]
Taught me so well I grabbed that gold[00:02:46]
And I left his dead ass there by the side of the road[00:02:50]
