Pancho And Lefty
Living on the road my friend
Is gonna keep you free and clean
Now you wear your skin like iron
Your breath as hard as kerosene
You weren't your momma's only boy
But her favorite one it seems
She began to cry when you said goodbye
And sank into your dreams
Pancho was a bandit boy
His horse was fast as polished steel
He wore his gun outside his pants
For all the honest world to feel
Pancho met his match you know
In the deserts down in mexico
Nobody heard his dying words
Ah but that's the way it goes
All the federales say
They could've had him any day
They only let him slip away
Out of kindness I suppose
Lefty he can't sing the blues
All night long like he used to
The dust that Pancho bit down south
Ended up in lefty's mouth
The day they laid poor Pancho low
Lefty split for Ohio
Where he got the bread to go
There ain't nobody knows
All the federales say
They could've had him any day
They only let him slip away
Out of kindness I suppose
The boys tell how old pancho fell
And lefty's livin in cheap hotels
The desert's quiet
Cleveland's cold
And so the story ends we're told
Pancho needs your prayers it's true
But save a few for lefty too
He only did what he had to do
And now he's growing old
All the federales say
They could've had him any day
They only let him go so long
Out of kindness I suppose
A few gray Federales say
They could've had him any day they only let him go so long
Out of kindness I suppose
