Streets of Laredo

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
I thought of that cowboy as one card I’m drawing
I thought of that cowboy as I bet a straight
I lost my saddle I put up a pony
Weren’t mine exactly I’m casting all to fate
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
Oh 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
As I walked out
In the Streets of Laredo
As I walked out
In Laredo one day
