Adios And Run

Lyrics

[Verse 1] High noon on the desert The eye of God was like a burning sun Their lips were chapped and broken Could not wet them with their swollen tongues Sanchez still had one spur left It jingled everytime he took a stride And Two Dogs cursed his broken head Blue bandana dripping red And wondered for the hundredth time how hard it was to die [Chorus] Ragged Comancheros, troubles favorite sons Harder than the cold blue steel it took to make their guns Steal it from the white eyes, sell it to the Mexicans Then adios amigos, adios and run [Verse 2] Sundown near the border In a dry gulch where the Fat Horse Creek once flowed They dreamed of a cantina And the beer they drank there not so long ago Sanchez lit a cigarette And tried to hide the truth behind his eyes Two Dogs took a drag instead Blue bandana soaking red And wondered for the thousandth time how long it took to die [Chorus] Ragged Comancheros, troubles favorite sons Harder than the cold blue steel it took to make their guns Steal it from the white eyes, sell it to the Mexicans Then adios amigos, adios and run [Outro] Adios amigos, adios and run
