Poncho And Lefty(Complete version originally performed by Willie Nelson) - Various Artists (欧美群星)
Living on the road my friend
Was gonna keep you free and clean
And now you were your skin like iron
And your breath's as hard as kerosene
You weren't your mama's only boy
But her favorite one it seems
She began to cry when you said goodbye
And sank into your dreams
Poncho was a bandit boy his horse
Was fast as polished steel
He wore his gun outside his pants for
All the honest world to feel
Well poncho met his match you know
On the deserts down in Mexico
Nobody heard his dying words
Ah but that's the way it goes
All the federals say they could've had him any day
We only let him slip away out of kindness I suppose
Lefty he can't sing the blues
All night long like he used to
The dust that poncho bit down
South ended up in lefty's mouth
The day they laid poor poncho low
Lefty split for Ohio
Where he got the bread to go
There ain't nobody knows
All the federals say they could've many day
We only let him slip away
Out of kindness I suppose
The poets tell how poncho fell
And lefty's living in a cheap hotel
The desert's quiet and Cleveland's cold
And so the story ends we're told
Poncho needs your prayers it's true
But save a few for lefty too
He only did what he had to do
And now he's growing old
All the federals say
They could've had him any day
We only let him go so long
Out of kindness I suppose
A few great federals say
Could've had him any day
We only let him go so long
Out of kindness I suppose
