Streets Of Laredo Lyrics - Faron Young

Beat the drum slowly 

And play the fife lowly 

I'm a young cowboy 

And I know I've done wrong. 

As I walked out in the streets of Laredo 

As I walked out in Laredo one day 

I spied a young cowboy wrapped in white linen 

Wrapped up in white linen as cold as the clay. 

I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy 

These words he did say as I boldly stepped by 

Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story 

Got shot in the breast and I know I must die.

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly 

Play the dead march as they carry me away 

Take me to the green valley there lay the sod o'er me 

For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong. 

Twas once in the saddle I used to go dashing 

Twas once in the saddle I used to go gay 

First came the drinking and then the card playing 

Got shot in the breast and I'm dying today. 

Get sixteen gamblers to carry my coffin 

Get six pretty maidens to bear up my part 

Put bunches of roses all over my coffin 

Roses to deaden the sod as it falls.
