Tom Russell - Tonight We Ride слова песни
Panco Villa crossed the border in the year of ought sixteenThe people of Columbus still hear him riding through their dreamsHe killed seventeen civilians you could hear the women screamBlackjack Pershing on a dancing horse was waiting in the wingsTonight we ride, tonight we rideWe`ll skin ole Pancho Villa, make chaps out of his hideShoot his horse, Siete Leguas, and his twenty-seven bridesTonight we ride, tonight we rideWe rode for three long years till Blackjack Pershing called it quitsWhen Jackie wasn`t lookin` I stole his fine spade bitIt was tied upon his stallion, so I rode away on itTo the wild Chihuahuan desert, so dry you couldn`t spitTonight we ride, you bastards dareWe`ll kill the wild Apache for the bounty on his hairThen we`ll ride into Durango, climb up the whorehouse stairsTonight we ride, Tonight we ride[solo]When I`m too damn old to sit a horse, I`ll steal the warden`s carBreak my ass out of this prison, leave my teeth there in a jarYou don`t need no teeth for kissin` gals or smokin` cheap cigarsI`ll sleep with one eye open, `neath God`s celestial starsTonight we rock, Tonight we rollWe`ll rob the Juarez liquor store for the Reposado GoldAnd if we drink ourselves to death, ain`t that the cowboy way to go?Tonight we ride, tonight we rideTonight we fly, we`re headin` westToward the mountains and the ocean where the eagle makes his nestIf our bones bleach on the desert, we`ll consider we are blessedTonight we ride, Tonight we ride[solo]...Tonight we ride, tonight we ride.
