Cowboy's Lament (Album Version) - Burl Ives[00:00:00]

Written by：Traditional[00:00:00]

As I walked out in the streets of Laredo[00:00:04]

As I walked out in Laredo one day[00:00:09]

I spied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linen[00:00:13]

Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay[00:00:18]

I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy[00:00:26]

These words he did say as I boldly walked by[00:00:31]

Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story[00:00:35]

I'm shot in the breast and I know I must die[00:00:40]

It was once in the saddle I used to go dashing[00:00:47]

Once in the saddle I used to go gay[00:00:52]

First down to Rosie's and then to the card house[00:00:56]

Got shot in the breast and I'm dying today[00:01:01]

Get sixteen gamblers to carry my coffin[00:01:08]

Get six jolly cowboys to sing me a song[00:01:13]

Take me to the graveyard and lay the sod o'er me[00:01:17]

For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong[00:01:22]

Get six jolly cowboys to carry my coffin[00:01:29]

Get six pretty maidens to sing me a song[00:01:34]

Take me to the valley and lay the sod o'er me[00:01:38]

For I'm a young cowboy I know I've done wrong[00:01:42]

Oh beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly[00:01:50]

Play the Dead March as they carry me along[00:01:55]

Put bunches of roses all over my coffin[00:02:00]

Put roses to deaden the clods as they fall[00:02:05]

As I walked out in the streets of Laredo[00:02:13]

As I walked out in Laredo one day[00:02:19]

I spied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linen[00:02:23]

Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay[00:02:28]
