Jimmy Riley had a car that would not run Jimmy Riley had a car that would not run So he came on by To borrow mine To help me decide He brought a gun Jimmy Riley took my car went underground Jimmy Riley took my car went underground Called a Robin Hood For these tough times I heard that a lot As I walked round Jimmy Riley chose his game, sir I would say Jimmy Riley chose his game, sir I would say But you pulled me in With your guns drawn You want to blame me So spin away Jimmy Riley is the one you should ask why Jimmy Riley is the one you should ask why You’ve got one problem And you should know You shot him up good Left him to die Jimmy Riley had my car holes in its side Jimmy Riley had my car holes in its side He is in the ground That’s all I know That and my car’s shot I need a ride

Streets of Laredo (Album Version) 03:31
lyrics

As I walked out in the streets of Laredo As I walked out in Laredo one day I spied a poor cowboy, all wrapped in white linen All wrapped in white linen and cold as the clay I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy These words he did say as I slowly passed by Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story For I'm shot in the chest and today I must die Oh once in the saddle I used to go dashing Oh once in the saddle I used to go gay First down to Rosie's, and then to the card-house Got shot through the body and now here I lay Oh beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly And play the dead march as you carry me along And in the grave throw me and roll the sod o'er me For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong Go bring me a cup, a cup of cold water To cool my parched lips the cowboy had said Before I returned, his spirit departed And gone to the roundup, the cowboy was dead We beat the drum slowly and played the fife lowly And bitterly wept as we bore him along For we loved our comrade, so brave, young and handsome We all loved our comrade, although he'd done wrong So beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly And bitterly weep as we bear him along For we loved our comrade, so brave, young and handsome We all loved our comrade, although he'd done wrong Although he’d done wrong We all loved our comrade, although he’d done wrong

Guess I’m walking through I was hoping to stay a while I’ve done all I can do But you withheld your smile Guess I’m heading out I’m not angry will not be crude Forgotten, there’s no doubt Won’t make a fuss, won’t be rude Up down, like the sun in sky Moving on like a murder of crows Up down, no more how or why Here not here like December snows Guess I’m walking through To be honest I hoped to stay So it goes, you were you I’ll take the look, be on my way Up down, like the sun in sky Moving on like a murder of crows Up down, no more how or why Here not here like a summer rose Guess I’m walking through Guess I will go, I just had to say I’ve done all I can do I’ll close the gate on my way

I walked into this town a thousand miles from nowhere I walked into this town a thousand miles from nowhere If it had a little more Still be nothing there I walked into this town I heard the closing of doors I walked into this town I heard the closing of doors If I don’t know you won’t serve you The sign on every store I walked into this town with a mean sun sinking low I walked into this town with a mean sun sinking low If I listen to my instincts Sun goes down, I go I walked into this town and in this town I will stay I walked into this town and in this town I will stay If you want to find me Head up Boot Hill way I walked into this town now was that such a crime I walked into this town now was that such a crime If there’s a hell I say This town Will burn for all time

Oh the times are hard the wages low Amelia where you bound to The Rocky Mountains are my home Across the western ocean Oh the land of promise there you’ll see Amelia where you bound to And when things are hard you can count on me Across the western ocean And to Liverpool you’ll take your way Amelia where you bound to To Liverpool that Yankee school Across the western ocean There’s Liverpool Pat, with his tarp’lin hat Amelia where you bound to And Yankee John, the packet rat Across the western ocean Beware those cheap packet ships I say Amelia where you bound to They steal your stores and clothes away Across the western ocean To the south is sand and the north is snow Amelia where you bound to And east is so flat, so west we go Across the western ocean You’ll be on the east, I’m on a foothill Amelia where you bound to So hide your money, there’s always a bill Across the western ocean Oh the times are hard the wages low Amelia where you bound to The Rocky Mountains are my home Across the western ocean

Red River Valley 03:42

From this valley, they say you are leaving How I wish I could go to Would you leave me behind sad and lonely When I love no other but you Won't you think of this valley you're leaving Oh, how lonely and sad it will be Oh, think of the fond heart you're breaking And the sadness you have left me So come sit by my side if you love me Do not hasten to bid me adieu But remember the Red River Valley And the cowboy who loves you so true For a long time you know I've been waiting For the words you never did say Now, alas all my fond hopes have vanished And with you they leave to stay With each day, we may earn more wisdom Sometimes there's a hard price to pay But to know how to live here without you It is knowledge I would wish away From this valley they say you are going I shall miss your blue eyes and bright smile And you take with you all of the sunshine That has brightened my path for a while It's a long time you know I've been waiting For the words that you never did say How those fond hopes have vanished As I know you are going away So now sit by the fire if you love me Do not hasten to bid me adieu But remember the Red River Valley And the cowboy who loves you so true

Sunflower Days 03:09
lyrics
buy track
The gold of sunset lit Conejo Grade And enriched my coming down. I flashed back to last night’s dream Someone I loved in a see-through gown. I’ve been to school I learned the rule Saying sunflowers must fade As do sunflower days. Sunflowers must fade As do sunflower days. We went to movies that were not that good But those were the ones that played The nights in motels, yes, a water bed And there our love and bodies were laid The things we took And left the book Saying sunflowers must fade As do sunflower days. Sunflowers must fade As do sunflower days. Popular songs to say what love was And we believed every one With bright beats we’d dance to paradise Sunflowers pointing to the sun. The gold of sunset lit Conejo Grade And colored my coming down. I shook free from that memory Someone I knew from a long left town A true history Shows it was me Saying sunflowers must fade As did sunflower days. Saying sunflowers must fade As did sunflower days. Saying sunflowers must fade As did sunflower days. Sunflowers must fade As did sunflower days.

Lieutenant Jameson said to the squad Boys I’ve been here before There’s a sweet spot just over a hill Where California Sue has a store California Sue, California Sue A half day march and down the hill Lieutenant Jameson said to his troops I hope she remembers me still California Sue, California Sue A half day march and down the hill Lieutenant Jameson said to his troops I hope she remembers me still California Sue was in a war zone And to thrive she had to know A regiment was off to the east Where Lieutenant Jameson had to go Lieutenant Jameson, Lieutenant Jameson Unaware and marching east California Sue then turned to the girls I think he might need a priest Lieutenant Jameson, Lieutenant Jameson Unaware and marching east California Sue then turned to the girls I think he might need a priest Lieutenant Jameson lost his squad Destroyed in surprise and fear His final words were lost as he fell And California Sue was not near California Sue, California Sue Next day she heard how he fell Lieutenant Jameson she would mourn But first she had to serve her clientele. California Sue, California Sue Next day she heard how he fell Lieutenant Jameson she would mourn But first she had to serve her clientele.

The colonel said Reports are your new post Is very hot Front line is peerless, fearless So it's strange no one's been shot Take initiative, get bloodied Resolve that situation So I left for my new occupation Neither enemies Nor value in the sector Completely nil Sergeant leads a fight, each night For a non-existent hill He writes reports and I add details Fabrication Staying alive is our occupation So there I am In my place I'm the next Novel captain I'll advance the line, in time And that's what I sell To battalion Fire fights falsified Could be plausible observation Here to lead and write this occupation

Yellow and purple teams had gone to war Over whose widget should be built first Management steps in to call the shot But the teams learned to love some conflict thirst Conflict thirst Conflict thirst He saw a bike wheel that had a wobble Just a spoke wrench to make it true Two hours later he said let it wiggle Lost the manual showing how to do How to do How to do The cats of Laredo and dogs of Denver Said no more jams, no poetry slams The possums of Poughkeepsie said no fear, we're here And their press release went out to fly The psychic drew cards for reading number seven The war stayed destined like a cost and service sign Who needs negotiating, get some missiles Go find a seller with a killer line Killer line Killer line The cats of Laredo and dogs of Denver Said no more jams, no poetry slams The possums of Poughkeepsie said no fear, we're here And their press release went out to fly The skywriter pilot said it'd cost double For making symbols that were new to her Strange crises make for improvising Which is something certain, true and sure True and sure True and sure The cats of Laredo and dogs of Denver Said no more jams, no poetry slams The possums of Poughkeepsie said no fear, we're here And their press release went out to fly The cats of Laredo and dogs of Denver Said no more jams, no poetry slams The possums of Poughkeepsie said no fear, we're here And their press release took wings to fly
