Matamoros - Billy Walker[00:00:02]
In old Mexico I stand on the square in Matamoros[00:00:15]
Round a Plaza the couples are walking to music so sweet[00:00:23]
I found my love not too long ago in Matamoros[00:00:30]
But I'm feeling low as the beggar who sits in the street[00:00:38]
Oh the promises that she made me with eyes black as midnight[00:00:45]
How could I know how fickle her promise could be[00:00:53]
Now I'm back to find what I feel is mine in Matamoros[00:01:00]
And there'll be bad trouble if I catch her cheating on me[00:01:08]
Streets are narrow and dark and tequilla runs free in Matamoros[00:01:15]
I stopped for one moment outside of Miguel's swinging door[00:01:23]
My heart breaks to hear the same haunting sounds of Granada[00:01:30]
She once called it our song and vowed should be mine evermore[00:01:37]
Then across the square went this wild young vaquero I see her[00:01:45]
Laughing and dancing and tossing her raven black hair[00:01:52]
They may take a hand when I face this man from Matamoros[00:02:00]
For the love of my woman is one thing that I'll never share[00:02:07]
Now I walk in the night far away from the lights of Matamoros[00:02:29]
And recall the last moments when I knew she loved me more than life[00:02:37]
I can still hear her cry "I love you and I'll prove it Manana "[00:02:44]
Then seeing my danger she jumped in front of his knife[00:02:52]
I know the stories they'll tell in the dim lit casinos[00:02:59]
Of the raven haired beauty who for her love laid dead on the floor[00:03:06]
They'll speak of the fight with the gringo that night in Matamoros[00:03:14]
And wonder what happened for he never returned anymore[00:03:22]
Oh oh hoo[00:03:27]
