Cowboy's Lament, "Streets of Laredo": Cowboy's Lament (Streets of Laredo) - Burl Ives (布勒·埃夫斯)[00:00:00]
As I walked out in the streets of Laredo[00:00:05]
As I walked out in Laredo one day[00:00:10]
I spied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linen[00:00:14]
Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay[00:00:19]
I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy[00:00:27]
These words he did say as I boldly walked by[00:00:32]
Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story[00:00:36]
I'm shot in the breast and I know I must die[00:00:41]
It was once in the saddle I used to go dashing[00:00:48]
Once in the saddle I used to go gay[00:00:53]
First down to Rosie's and then to the card house[00:00:57]
Got shot in the breast and I'm dying today[00:01:02]
Get six pretty maidens to carry my coffin[00:01:09]
Get six jolly cowboys to sing me a song[00:01:14]
Take me to the valley and lay the sod over me[00:01:18]
For I'm a young cowboy I know I've done wrong[00:01:23]
Get six jolly cowboys to carry my coffin[00:01:30]
Get six pretty maidens to sing me a song[00:01:35]
Take me to the valley and lay the sod over me[00:01:39]
For I'm a young cowboy I know I've done wrong[00:01:43]
Oh beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly[00:01:51]
Play the Dead March as they carry me along[00:01:56]
Put bunches of roses all over my coffin[00:02:01]
Put roses to deaden the clods as they fall[00:02:06]
As I walked out in the streets of Laredo[00:02:14]
As I walked out in Laredo one day[00:02:20]
I spied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linen[00:02:24]
Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay[00:02:29]
