Letra
0:10Livin' on the road my friend
0:14Is gonna keep you free and clean
0:18Now you wear your skin like iron
0:22Your breath as hard as kerosene
0:26Weren't your mama's only boy
0:30But her favorite one it seems
0:34She began to cry when you said goodbye
0:41And sank into your dreams
0:48Pancho was a bandit boss
0:53His horse as fast as polished steel
0:56He wore his gun outside his pants
1:00For all the honest world to feel
1:05Pancho met his match you know
1:09On the deserts down in Mexico
1:13And nobody heard his dyin' words
1:20Ah but that's the way it goes
1:27All the Federales say
1:31They could'a had him any day
1:35Only let him slip away
1:41Out of kindness I suppose
1:48Lefty he can't sing the blues
1:52All night long like he used to
1:57The dust that Pancho bit down south
2:00Ended up in Lefty's mouth
2:03The day they laid poor Pancho low
2:09Lefty split for Ohio
2:13Where he got the bread to go
2:19There ain't nobody 'knows
2:26All the Federales say
2:30Could'a had him any day
2:35We only let him slip away
2:41Out of kindness I suppose
3:15The poets tell how Pancho fell
3:19And Lefty's livin' in a cheap hotel
3:23The desert's quiet and Cleveland's cold
3:28And so the story ends we're told
3:32Pancho needs your prayers it's true
3:36But save a few for Lefty too
3:39He only did what he had to do
3:46And now he's growin' old
3:54All the Federales say
3:57Could'a had him any day
4:01We only let him slip away
4:07Out of kindness I suppose
4:15A few gray Federales say
4:19Could'a had him any day
4:23We only let him go so long
4:30Out of kindness I suppose
Livin' on the road my friend Is gonna keep you free and clean Now you wear your skin like iron Your breath as hard as kerosene 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 Pancho was a bandit boss His horse as fast as polished steel He wore his gun outside his pants For all the honest world to feel Pancho met his match you know On the deserts down in Mexico And nobody heard his dyin' words Ah but that's the way it goes All the Federales say They could'a had him any day 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 Pancho bit down south Ended up in Lefty's mouth The day they laid poor Pancho low Lefty split for Ohio Where he got the bread to go There ain't nobody 'knows All the Federales say Could'a had him any day We only let him slip away Out of kindness I suppose The poets tell how Pancho fell And Lefty's livin' in a cheap hotel The desert's quiet and Cleveland's cold And so the story ends we're told Pancho 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 growin' old All the Federales say Could'a had him any day We only let him slip away Out of kindness I suppose A few gray Federales say Could'a had him any day We only let him go so long Out of kindness I suppose
