Letra de Pancho and Lefty
Living on the road, my friend Was gonna keep you free and clean Now you wear your skin like iron Your breath's as hard as keroseneYou weren't your mama's only boy But her favorite one it seems She began to cry when you said goodbye And sank into your dreamsPancho was a bandit boys His horse was fast as polished steel Wore his gun outside his pants For all the honest world to feelPancho met his match you know On the deserts down in Mexico Nobody heard his dying words That's the way it goesAll the federales say Could have had him any day They only let him hang around Out of kindness I supposeLefty, 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 mouthThe day they laid poor Pancho low Lefty split for Ohio Where he got the bread to go There ain't nobody knowsAll the federales say Could have had him any day They only let him slip away Out of kindness I supposePoets tell how Pancho fell Lefty's livin' in a cheap hotel The desert's quiet and Cleveland's cold So the story ends we're toldPancho 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 oldAll the federales say Could have had him any day They only let him go so wrong Out of kindness I supposeA few gray federales say Could have had him any day They only let him hang around Out of kindness I suppose
