时长: 03:13
Needing sleep and hot and dirty on I drove through Alberquerque [00:00:21]
I had one eye on the mirror for the law [00:00:25]
When I pulled in for some gasoline six house from El Paso [00:00:29]
Seemed New Mexico went on for evermore [00:00:32]
I was talkin' to the pump man and you should have seen him jump man [00:00:36]
When I told him I was heading for the Heights [00:00:40]
He said “Wait on 'til tomorrow 'cos a few miles from Socorro [00:00:43]
Is a place you'll never leave by light of night [00:00:47]
There's only buzzards and lizards and ornerary critturs [00:00:50]
You've run out of luck if you get stuck in Trombone Gulch [00:00:54]
Well I laughed and left him standing put a big tip in his hand [00:01:00]
And drove on out ignoring all his shouts of thanks [00:01:03]
But a few miles from Socorro I discovered to my horror [00:01:07]
That his shouts had meant he hadn't filled the tank [00:01:10]
I knew I wasn't beaten yet I stumbled from the sedan [00:01:13]
Cursing everyone from Satan up to God [00:01:17]
And I pushed it to ledge and pushed it out across the edge [00:01:37]
And knew the law would never see it from the road [00:01:44]
And the dust came like a blizzard I got bitten by a lizard [00:01:51]
And I fell down into canyons all the time [00:01:55]
But I kept the road beside me 'cos I had to have it guide me [00:01:59]
All the way to safety and the borderline [00:02:02]
There's only buzzards and lizards and ornerary critturs [00:02:06]
You've run out of luck if you get stuck in Trombone Gulch [00:02:09]
When the sun came up from sleepin' and the morning came in creeping [00:02:15]
I could see a signpost just on up ahead [00:02:18]
It said Welcome to Socorro Did you like to ride our trombone [00:02:22]
It goes right around the valley on a bend [00:02:25]
There's only buzzards and lizards and ornerary critturs [00:02:28]
