[00:00:00] The Cowboy's Lament (Streets Of Laredo) - Burl Ives

[00:00:07] Written by：Traditional/Ives

[00:00:15] As I walked out in the streets of Laredo

[00:00:20] As I walked out in Laredo one day

[00:00:24] I spied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linen

[00:00:29] Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay

[00:00:36] I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy

[00:00:41] These words he did say as I boldly walked by

[00:00:45] Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story

[00:00:49] I'm shot in the breast and I know I must die

[00:00:56] It was once in the saddle I used to go dashing

[00:01:01] Once in the saddle I used to go gay

[00:01:05] First down to rosie's and then to the card house

[00:01:09] Got shot in the breast and I'm dying today

[00:01:17] Get sixteen gamblers to carry my coffin

[00:01:21] Get six jolly cowboys to sing me a song

[00:01:25] Take me to the graveyard and lay the sod o'er me

[00:01:30] For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong

[00:01:37] Oh beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly

[00:01:42] Play the dead march as they carry me along

[00:01:47] Put bunches of roses all over my coffin

[00:01:52] Put roses to deaden the clods as they fall

[00:02:00] As I walked out in the streets of Laredo

[00:02:06] As I walked out in Laredo one day

[00:02:10] I spied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linen

[00:02:15] Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay
