Me and My Uncle - The Lone Bellow & Friends[00:00:00]
Written by:John Phillips[00:00:01]
Me and my uncle went ridin' down[00:00:03]
To south Colorado west Texas bound[00:00:08]
We stopped over in Santa Fe[00:00:12]
That day on the pony just about half way[00:00:16]
And you know it was the hottest part of the day[00:00:21]
I took the horses up to the stall[00:00:27]
Went to the barroom ordered drinks for all[00:00:32]
Three days in the saddle you know my body hurt[00:00:36]
It being summer I took off my shirt[00:00:41]
And I tried to wash off some of that dusty dirt[00:00:46]
West Texas cowboys they was all around[00:00:52]
Wheat liquor and money they loaded down[00:00:56]
So soon after payday no one seemed ashamed[00:01:01]
You know my uncle he starts playin' the game[00:01:06]
Hey a hollow jack and the winner take the hand[00:01:10]
My uncle starts winning the cowboys got sore[00:01:41]
One of them called him and then two more[00:01:46]
Accused him of cheatin' oh no it couldn't be[00:01:50]
I know my uncle he's as honest as me[00:01:55]
And I'm as honest as a Denver man can be[00:02:00]
One of them cowboys he starts to draw[00:02:06]
And I shot him down lord he never saw[00:02:11]
Shot me another right then he hit the floor[00:02:15]
In the confusion my uncle grabbed the gold[00:02:20]
And we hightailed it down to Mexico[00:02:25]
Now I love thoe cowboys I love their gold[00:02:31]
Love my uncle god rest his soul[00:02:36]
Taught me good lord taught me all I know[00:02:40]
Taught me so well that I grabbed that gold and[00:02:45]
I left his dead a** there by the side of the road[00:02:51]
