Me and my uncle went riding down [00:00:33]
South Colorado west Texas bound [00:00:37]
We stopped over in Santa Fe [00:00:42]
That being the point just about half way [00:00:46]
And you know it was the hottest part of the day [00:00:50]
I took the horses up to the stall [00:00:56]
Went to the barroom ordered drinks for all [00:01:00]
Three days in the saddle you know my body hurt [00:01:04]
It being summer I took off my shirt [00:01:09]
And I tried to wash off some of that dusty dirt [00:01:13]
When Texas cowboys they're all around [00:01:19]
With liquor and money they loaded down [00:01:23]
So soon after payday know it seemed a shame [00:01:27]
So you know my uncle he starts a friendly game [00:01:31]
Hey high low jack and the winner take the hand [00:01:36]
[00:01:39]
My uncle starts winning cowboys got sore [00:02:05]
One of them called him and then two more [00:02:09]
Accused him of cheating oh no it couldn't be [00:02:13]
I know my uncle he's as honest as me [00:02:17]
Hey I'm as honest as a Denver man can be [00:02:21]
One of them cowboys he starts to draw [00:02:28]
I shot him down lord he never saw [00:02:31]
Shot me another oh damn he won't grow old [00:02:36]
In the confusion my uncle grabbed the gold [00:02:40]
And we high tailed it down to Mexico [00:02:44]
I love those cowboys I love their gold [00:02:50]
I loved my uncle god rest his soul [00:02:54]
He taught me good lord taught me all I know [00:02:59]
Taught me so well I grabbed that gold [00:03:03]
And I left his dead a** there by the side of the road [00:03:07]
