[00:01.70]	Songs Title：pancho and lefty
[00:03.02]
[00:09.77]	Livin' on the road, my friend
[00:13.20]
[00:13.76]	Is gonna keep you free and clean
[00:16.96]
[00:17.91]	Now you wear your skin like iron
[00:21.99]	Your breath as hard as kerosene
[00:25.62]
[00:26.62]	Weren't your mama's only boy
[00:30.27]	But her favorite one it seems
[00:33.28]
[00:34.28]	She began to cry when you said goodbye
[00:38.75]
[00:41.94]	And sank into your dreams
[00:45.82]
[00:48.83]	Pancho was a bandit boss
[00:52.96]	His horse as fast as polished steel
[00:55.92]
[00:56.92]	He wore his gun outside his pants
[01:00.65]	For all the honest world to feel
[01:04.41]
[01:05.28]	Pancho met his match you know
[01:08.79]	On the deserts down in Mexico
[01:11.80]
[01:13.01]	And nobody heard his dyin' words
[01:17.45]
[01:19.84]	Ah, but that's the way it goes
[01:23.53]
[01:26.98]	All the Federales say
[01:30.82]	They could'a had him any day
[01:34.14]
[01:35.14]	Only let him slip away
[01:38.53]
[01:41.47]	Out of kindness, I suppose
[01:45.23]
[01:48.56]	Lefty, he can't sing the blues
[01:51.69]
[01:52.21]	All night long like he used to
[01:55.60]
[01:56.53]	The dust that Pancho bit down south
[02:00.47]	Ended up in Lefty's mouth
[02:04.00]
[02:04.94]	The day they laid poor Pancho low
[02:07.78]
[02:08.71]	Lefty split for Ohio
[02:12.07]
[02:13.01]	Where he got the bread to go
[02:16.15]
[02:19.72]	There ain't nobody 'knows
[02:23.87]
[02:26.42]	All the Federales say
[02:29.64]
[02:30.51]	Could'a had him any day
[02:33.33]
[02:34.52]	We only let him slip away
[02:37.59]
[02:40.97]	Out of kindness, I suppose
[02:45.43]
[03:15.55]	The poets tell how Pancho fell
[03:18.99]
[03:19.62]	And Lefty's livin' in a cheap hotel
[03:22.38]
[03:23.44]	The desert's quiet and Cleveland's cold
[03:27.59]	And so the story ends we're told
[03:30.79]
[03:31.72]	Pancho needs your prayers, it's true
[03:35.79]	But save a few for Lefty too
[03:39.13]
[03:39.83]	He only did what he had to do
[03:43.82]
[03:46.59]	And now he's growin' old
[03:49.72]
[03:53.35]	All the Federales say
[03:57.75]	Could'a had him any day
[04:00.51]
[04:01.39]	We only let him slip away
[04:04.70]
[04:07.84]	Out of kindness, I suppose
[04:11.68]
[04:14.94]	A few gray Federales say
[04:19.20]	Could'a had him any day
[04:21.84]
[04:22.89]	We only let him go so long
[04:26.89]
[04:29.52]	Out of kindness, I suppose
