Rio Grande
I was somewhere out west in El Paso
Or maybe it was Mexico
With a brown eyed girl
In a mezcal world
She was someone that I didn't know
I didn't didn't didn't know
Was headed for a little vacation
To get away from my sorrows
But it's an empty place
When you miss the face
Of the only love you've ever known
All the wild birds
Sing a cowboy song
On the Rio Grande
Cause my love is gone
Every single man
Rides off into the sun
On the Rio Grande
Drinking till the dawn
Cause my love is gone
It was somewhere out west in El Paso
Where they say I lost my soul
Yoy let the vultures fly
When you waved goodbye
Now I'm someone that I didn't know
I didn't didn't didn't know
Was headed for a little vacation
To get away form my sorrows
But the days are hot
And you're all I've got
Just a memory to keep me going
All the wild birds
Sing a cowboy song
On the Rio Grande
Cause my love is gone
Every single man
Rides off into the sun
On the Rio Grande
Drinking till the dawn
Cause my love is gone
I was walking away from El Paso
But it wouldn't let me go
I got carried away
In a river of wine
Faoun the basement of the Alamo
The Ala Alamo
Was looking for a little salvation
But wound up sleeping in a hole
Cause I crossed the wrong man
Whit a gun in his hand
Now I'm dying babe, I love you so
All the wild birds
Sing a cowboy song
On the Rio Grande
Cause my love is gone
Every single man
Rides off into the sun
On the Rio Grande
Drinking till the dawn
Cause my love is gone
Or maybe it was Mexico
With a brown eyed girl
In a mezcal world
She was someone that I didn't know
I didn't didn't didn't know
Was headed for a little vacation
To get away from my sorrows
But it's an empty place
When you miss the face
Of the only love you've ever known
All the wild birds
Sing a cowboy song
On the Rio Grande
Cause my love is gone
Every single man
Rides off into the sun
On the Rio Grande
Drinking till the dawn
Cause my love is gone
It was somewhere out west in El Paso
Where they say I lost my soul
Yoy let the vultures fly
When you waved goodbye
Now I'm someone that I didn't know
I didn't didn't didn't know
Was headed for a little vacation
To get away form my sorrows
But the days are hot
And you're all I've got
Just a memory to keep me going
All the wild birds
Sing a cowboy song
On the Rio Grande
Cause my love is gone
Every single man
Rides off into the sun
On the Rio Grande
Drinking till the dawn
Cause my love is gone
I was walking away from El Paso
But it wouldn't let me go
I got carried away
In a river of wine
Faoun the basement of the Alamo
The Ala Alamo
Was looking for a little salvation
But wound up sleeping in a hole
Cause I crossed the wrong man
Whit a gun in his hand
Now I'm dying babe, I love you so
All the wild birds
Sing a cowboy song
On the Rio Grande
Cause my love is gone
Every single man
Rides off into the sun
On the Rio Grande
Drinking till the dawn
Cause my love is gone
