[00:00:07] Those other years the dusty years

[00:00:11] We drove the big hers through

[00:00:16] I tried to forget the miles we rode

[00:00:19] And Spanish johnny too

[00:00:24] He'd sit beside a water ditch when all this herd was in

[00:00:33] And he'd never harm a child but sing to his mandolin

[00:00:43] The old talk the old ways and the dealing of our game

[00:00:51] But Spanish Johnny never spoke but sing a song of Spain

[00:01:00] And his talk with men was vicious talk

[00:01:03] When he was drunk on gin

[00:01:09] Ah but those were golden things he change to his mandolin

[00:01:56] And we had to stand we tried to judge we had to stop him then

[00:02:04] For the hand so gentle to a child had killed so many men

[00:02:13] He died a hard death long ago before the road come in

[00:02:22] And the night before he swung he sung to his mandolin

[00:02:30] Well we carried him out in the morning sun

[00:02:34] A man that done no good

[00:02:39] And we lowered him down in the cold clay

[00:02:43] Stuck in a cross of wood

[00:02:48] And a letter we wrote to his kinfolk

[00:02:52] To tell them where he'd been

[00:02:57] And we shipped it out to Mexico along with his mandolin
