[00:00:00] The Streets of Laredo - Faron Young

[00:00:01] Written by：Faron Young

[00:00:09] Beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly

[00:00:20] I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong

[00:00:31] As I walked out in the streets of Laredo

[00:00:38] As I walked out in Laredo one day

[00:00:43] I spied a young cowboy wrapped in white linen

[00:00:49] Wrapped up in white linen as cold as the clay

[00:00:55] I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy

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

[00:01:06] Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story

[00:01:11] Got shot in the breast and I know I must die

[00:01:22] Beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly

[00:01:33] Play the dead march as they carry me away

[00:01:43] Take me to the green valley there lay the sod o'er me

[00:01:53] For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong

[00:02:06] Twas once in the saddle I used to go dashing

[00:02:12] Twas once in the saddle I used to go gay

[00:02:17] First came the drinking and then the card playing

[00:02:23] Got shot in the breast and I'm dying today

[00:02:28] Get sixteen gamblers to carry my coffin

[00:02:34] Get six pretty maidens to bear up my part

[00:02:39] Put bunches of roses all over my coffin

[00:02:44] Roses to deaden the sod as it falls

[00:02:55] Beat the drum slowly

[00:03:00] Play the fife lowly

[00:03:05] Play the dead march as they carry me away

[00:03:15] Take me to the green valley there lay the sod o'er me

[00:03:25] For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong
