《Poncho & Lefty》歌词

[00:00:00] Poncho & Lefty - Townes Van Zandt

[00:00:08] Living on the road my friend

[00:00:12] Was gonna keep you free and clean

[00:00:15] Now you wear your skin like iron

[00:00:18] Your breath's as hard as kerosene

[00:00:23] You weren't your momma's only boy

[00:00:26] But her favorite one it seems

[00:00:29] She began to cry when you said goodbye

[00:00:36] And sank into your dreams

[00:00:41] Poncho was a bandit boys

[00:00:45] His horse was fast as polished steel

[00:00:49] Wore his gun outside his pants

[00:00:52] For all the honest world to feel

[00:00:56] Poncho met his match you know

[00:00:59] On the deserts down in Mexico

[00:01:03] Nobody heard his dying words

[00:01:09] That's the way it goes

[00:01:15] All the federales say

[00:01:19] They could have had him any day

[00:01:22] They only let him hang around

[00:01:28] Out of kindness I suppose

[00:01:34] Lefty he can't sing the blues

[00:01:37] All night long like he used to

[00:01:41] The dust that Poncho bit down south

[00:01:45] Ended up in lefty's mouth

[00:01:48] The day they laid poor Poncho low

[00:01:52] Lefty split for Ohio

[00:01:55] Where he got the bread to go

[00:02:01] There ain't nobody knows

[00:02:07] All the federales say

[00:02:11] They could have had him any day

[00:02:14] Only let him slip away

[00:02:20] Out of kindness I suppose

[00:02:26] The poets tell how Poncho fell

[00:02:30] Lefty's living in a cheap hotel

[00:02:33] The desert's quiet

[00:02:35] Cleveland's cold

[00:02:37] So the story ends we're told

[00:02:40] Poncho needs your prayers it's true

[00:02:44] But save a few for lefty too

[00:02:47] He just did what he had to do

[00:02:54] Now he's growing old

[00:02:59] A few gray federales say

[00:03:03] They could have had him any day

[00:03:06] Only let him go so wrong

[00:03:12] Out of kindness I suppose

[00:03:18] A few gray federales say

[00:03:22] They could have had him any day

[00:03:25] They only let him go so wrong

[00:03:31] Out of kindness I suppose
