Spanish Johnny - Emmylou Harris[00:00:00]

Those other years the dusty years[00:00:06]

We drove the big hers through[00:00:10]

I tried to forget the miles we rode[00:00:15]

And Spanish Johnny too[00:00:19]

He'd sit beside a water ditch[00:00:24]

When all this herd was in[00:00:28]

And he'd never harm a child[00:00:33]

But sing to his mandolin[00:00:35]

The old talk the old ways [00:00:42]

And the dealin' of our game[00:00:45]

But Spanish Johnny never spoke [00:00:51]

Sing a song of Spain[00:00:54]

And his talk with men was vicious talk[00:00:59]

When he was drunk on gin[00:01:03]

Ah but those were golden things[00:01:08]

He said to his mandolin[00:01:11]

We had to stand we tried to judge [00:01:55]

We had to stop him then[00:01:59]

For the hand so gentle to a child[00:02:04]

Had killed so many men[00:02:07]

He died a hard death long ago[00:02:12]

Before the road come in[00:02:16]

And the night before he swung[00:02:21]

He sung to his mandolin[00:02:24]

Well we carried him out in the mornin' sun[00:02:30]

A man that done no good[00:02:34]

And we lowered him down in the cold clay[00:02:39]

Stuck in a cross of wood[00:02:42]

And a letter we wrote to his kinfolk[00:02:47]

To tell them where he'd been[00:02:51]

And we shipped it out to Mexico [00:02:56]

Along with his mandolin[00:03:00]
