Billy Venero - Marty Robbins[00:00:01]

In an Arizona town one day[00:00:09]

Bill Venero heard them say[00:00:12]

That a band of Apache Indians[00:00:15]

Were on the trail that way[00:00:19]

Heard them tell of murder done[00:00:22]

Three men killed at Rocky Run[00:00:25]

They're in danger at the cow ranch[00:00:29]

Said Venero under his breath [00:00:32]

Nearly forty miles away[00:00:35]

Was a little place that lay[00:00:38]

In a deep and shady valley[00:00:42]

In the mighty wilderness[00:00:45]

Half a score of homes were there[00:00:48]

And in one a maiden fair[00:00:52]

Held the heart of Bill Venero[00:00:55]

Bill Venero's Little Bess[00:00:59]

So no wonder he grew pale[00:01:01]

When he heard the cowboy's tale[00:01:05]

Of the men that he'd seen murdered[00:01:08]

There at Rocky Run[00:01:12]

Sure as there's a God above[00:01:15]

I will save the girl I love[00:01:18]

By that love I hold for Bessie[00:01:21]

I will see that somethin's done[00:01:25]

Not one minute he delayed[00:01:28]

When this brave resolve was made[00:01:31]

But man his comrades told him[00:01:35]

When they hears his daring plan[00:01:38]

You are riding straight to death[00:01:41]

But he answered Save your breath[00:01:44]

I may never reach the cow ranch[00:01:47]

But I'll do the best I can[00:01:51]

As he crossed the alkali[00:01:54]

All his thoughts flew on ahead[00:01:58]

To the little band at Cow Ranch[00:02:01]

Thinking not a danger near[00:02:04]

With his quirt's unceasing whirl[00:02:08]

And the jingle of his spurs[00:02:11]

Little Chapo bore the cowboy[00:02:14]

O'er the far away frontier[00:02:17]

Sharp and dear a rifle shot[00:02:22]

Woke the echoes of the spot[00:02:26]

I am wounded cried Venero[00:02:29]

As he swayed from side to side[00:02:32]

While there's life there's always hope[00:02:35]

Slowly onward I will lope[00:02:38]

If we fail to reach the Cow Ranch[00:02:42]

Bessie Lee will know I tried[00:02:46]

Then at dusk a horse of brown[00:02:49]

Wet with sweat came panting down[00:02:52]

The little lane at Cow Ranch[00:02:55]

Stopped in front of Bessie's door[00:02:59]

But the cowboy was asleep[00:03:02]

And his slumber was so deep[00:03:05]

Little Bess could never wake him[00:03:09]

Though she tried forever more[00:03:12]

You have heard this story told[00:03:15]

By the young and by the old[00:03:18]

How the Indians killed Venero[00:03:22]

On his way to Rocky Run[00:03:25]

Many years have passed away[00:03:29]

And the maiden's hair is gray[00:03:32]

But still she places roses[00:03:35]

On Bill Venero's grave[00:03:39]
