作词 : Keen | |
I crossed the | |
Mississippi, turned south at | |
San Antone | |
A bowie knife, a woolen coat, a grip bag on my arm | |
It's all somebody needs to make it through the land | |
Walk the night, travel light, cross the | |
Rio Grande | |
Someone strums a mandolin, soft gulf breezes blow | |
My new life is waiting in old | |
Mexico I was once a married man livin' peacefully | |
Hard to say exactly when the devil blinded me | |
But there was some confusion when my sweet wife left this world | |
Darker times, drunken crimes, a dead young working girl | |
Left a jailer there in | |
Caroline, watching me from down below | |
My new life is waiting in old | |
Mexico Livin' in the shadows | |
Runnin' from my fame | |
Blowin' where the wind blows | |
Where no one knows my name | |
In the El | |
Vaquero Bar in the town of | |
Eagle Pass | |
Moments from my freedom warm whiskey in my glass | |
Some boracho took me for the man who stole his wife | |
He went for his forty-four as | |
I reached for my knife | |
He never fired a second shot he was just too slow | |
My new life is waiting in old | |
Mexico I hear of hidden harbors south of | |
Mazatlan Where cool spring mountain waters meet the warm | |
Pacific sun | |
I pray the miles | |
I've traveled and all the sins | |
I bear Burn away like mornin' fog and vanish in the air | |
Miles beyond the border now, but many miles to go | |
My new life is waiting in old | |
Mexico |
