Out In New Mexico - Johnny Horton[00:00:00]
It was in the town of Griffin[00:00:07]
In the year of '83[00:00:10]
It was there an old cow-puncher[00:00:12]
Step up and says to me[00:00:15]
How do you do young fellow[00:00:19]
And how would you like to go[00:00:22]
And spend a pleasant summer[00:00:24]
Out in New Mexico[00:00:27]
I'll furnish you good wages[00:00:31]
Your transportation too[00:00:33]
If you will but go with me[00:00:36]
One summer season's thru[00:00:39]
But if you grow homesick[00:00:43]
And back to Griffin go[00:00:45]
I'll furnish you no horses[00:00:48]
From the hills of Mexico[00:00:50]
Well we left the town of Griffin[00:01:01]
In the merry month of May[00:01:03]
When ev'rything seemed lovely[00:01:06]
And ev'rything seemed gay[00:01:08]
With saddles on our horses[00:01:12]
Marching onward we did go[00:01:15]
Until we reached[00:01:17]
Old Boggy Out in New Mexico[00:01:19]
It was there our pleasures ended[00:01:24]
And our troubles they began[00:01:26]
Oh the first hailstorm came on us[00:01:29]
Oh how those cattle ran[00:01:31]
Thru all kinds of thorns and thistles[00:01:35]
Those cowboys had to go[00:01:38]
While the Indians watched upon us[00:01:41]
Out in New Mexico[00:01:43]
And when the drive was over[00:01:54]
The rider would not pay[00:01:56]
To all you good-lookin' people[00:01:59]
This much I have to say[00:02:01]
Go back to your friends and loved ones[00:02:05]
Tell others not to go[00:02:08]
To the God-forsaken country[00:02:10]
They call New Mexico[00:02:13]
