1
As I walked out in the streets of Laredo
2
As I walked out in Laredo one day
3
I saw a young cowboy all dressed in white linen
4
Dressed in white linen as cold as the clay
5
So beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly
6
Play the dead march as you carry me along
7
Take me to the green valley, they'll lay the sod o'er me
8
For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong
9
Once in a saddle, I used to go dashing
10
Once in a saddle, I used to go gay
11
First to the courthouse and lay down the roses
12
But I'm shot in the breast and I'm dyin' today
13
Bring sixteen tall cowboys to carry my casket
14
Ten pretty women to sing me a song
15
Take me to the green valley, they'll lay the sod o'er me
16
For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong
17
Please beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly
18
Play the dead march as you carry me along
19
Take me to the green valley, they'll lay the sod o'er me
20
For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong
