Spanish Johnny (Album Version) - David Bromberg[00:00:00]

Those other years those dusty years[00:00:26]

When we drove the big hearse through[00:00:30]

I tried to forget the miles we rode[00:00:38]

And Spanish Johnny you [00:00:42]

He'd sit beside a water ditch[00:00:52]

When all his herd was in[00:00:56]

He'd never harm a child[00:01:02]

But sing to his mandolin[00:01:05]

He sang the old songs the old talk[00:01:12]

And the dealin' of our games[00:01:16]

Spanish Johnny seldom spoke[00:01:23]

But sang songs of Spain[00:01:27]

And his talk with men was vicious talk[00:01:33]

When he was drunk on gin[00:01:37]

But those were golden things he said[00:01:43]

To his mandolin[00:01:48]

We had to stand we had to judge[00:02:15]

We had to stop him then[00:02:18]

See those hands so gentle to a child[00:02:24]

Had killed so many men[00:02:29]

He died a hard death long ago[00:02:35]

Before the roads came in[00:02:39]

And the night before he swung[00:02:43]

He sang to his mandolin[00:02:46]

We carried him out in the morning light[00:03:13]

The man who done no good[00:03:17]

Laid him down in a cold cold clay[00:03:21]

Stuck in a cross of wood[00:03:25]

And a letter we wrote to his kinfolks[00:03:32]

To tell'em where he'd been[00:03:36]

We shipped it on down to Mexico[00:03:43]

Along with the mandolin[00:03:47]
