Laredo    
         
 
As I walked out on the streets of Laredo
As I walked out on Laredo one day
I espied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linen
all wrapped in white linen, as cold as a clay
 
I can see by your outfit that you are a cowboy
These words he did say as I boldly walked by
Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story
I'm shot in the breast and I know I must die
 
Just beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly
and play the dead march as you carry me along
take me to green valley and lay the sod over me
I am a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong
 
Get six jolly cowboys to carry my coffin
get six pretty maidens to sing me a song
Put bunches of roses all over my coffin
Roses that deaden the clouds as they fall
