Eddy Arnold – Letras de Streets Of Laredo

Álbum: Have Guitar Will Travel

As I walked out in the streets of Laredo;
As I walked out in Laredo one day,
I spied a young cowboy wrapped all in white linen;
Wrapped in white linen, as cold as the clay.

'I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy',
These words he did say as I boldly walked by,
'Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story:
Got shot in the breast and I know I must die.'

Oh, beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly;
Play the death march as you carry me along;
Take me to the valley there lay the sod o'er me,
For I'm a young cowboy I know I've done wrong.

Oh, fetch me some water, a cool cup of water
To cool my parched lips,' then the poor cowboy said.
Before I returned his spirit had left him;
had gone to his Maker, the cowboy was dead.

'Oh beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly
Sing the death march as you carry me along.
Take me to the valley, there lay the sod o'er me,
For I'm a young cowboy and know I've done wrong.'

tag: I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong.
