John Cale - Honi Soit

Streets Of Laredo

As I went out walking in the streets of Laredo
As I went out walking in Laredo today
I saw a young cowboy all dressed in white linen
Dressed in white linen as cold as the clay

You take six jolly gamblers, six pretty maidens
Six pretty maidens to sing you a song
Once up to roses, and once down to the card house
I'm a young cowboy, and I know I've done wrong
So, bang the drum slowly and play the fife lowly
Play the death march as they carry me along
Take bunches of roses to lay on my pillow
Roses to soften the sods as they fall
