《Streets Of Laredo (Cowboy’s Lament)》歌词

[00:00:00] Streets Of Laredo (Cowboy's Lament) - Shindig Society

[00:00:08] As I walked out on the streets of Laredo

[00:00:15] As I walked out on Laredo one day

[00:00:21] I spied a poor cowboy wrapped in white linen

[00:00:28] Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay

[00:00:36] "Then beat the drum slowly play the Fife lowly

[00:00:42] "Play the dead march as you carry me along

[00:00:48] "Take me to the green valley lay the sod o'er me

[00:00:56] "I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong "

[00:01:03] "I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy"

[00:01:10] These words he did say as I boldly stepped by

[00:01:16] "Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story

[00:01:23] I was shot in the breast and I know I must die "

[00:01:31] "Go bring me a cup a cup of cold water

[00:01:37] To cool my parched lips " the cowboy said;

[00:01:44] Before I turned the spirit had left him

[00:01:50] And gone to its Giver --- the cowboy was dead

[00:01:59] We beat the drum slowly and played the fife lowly

[00:02:05] Play the Dead March as you carry me along

[00:02:11] Take me to the green valley and lay the sod o'er me

[00:02:18] For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong "
