Hank Snow Cross The Brazos At Waco
Cross the Brazos at Waco ride hard and I'll make it by dawn
Cross the Brazos at Waco I'm safe when I reach San Antone
On the Chisholm Trail it was midnight Carmela was strong on his mind
Because of the life he have chosen Carmela had left him behind
Too long he'd been el bandito Carmela had left him alone
But today someone brought a message she'd been seen in old San Antone
Cross the Brazos at Waco...
[ guitar ]
Then the night came alight with gunfire he knew that at last he'd been found
As the ranger's bad shoot rightly el bandito laid on the ground
Carmela she knew he was dying that all of her dreams were in vain
As she kissed his lips for the last time she heard him whisper again
Cross the Brazos at Waco...
