Wood & Wire - Texas lyrics

Artist: Wood & Wire

album: North of Despair


Following the Brazos river
Down to Mexico
I am a wanted outlaw
And I've got nowhere left to go
I'm running from a bank job
That I did in Ohio
Well, lady luck and aces full
Put me back out in the cold
I spent the night in the mission
Filled with hungry ghosts and stone
Not far from the border
In a town called San Anton'
I woke up to a ruckus
It chilled me to the bone
And my pistols drew
And bullets flew
But I was all alone
Crossing the Nueces River
Westbound with the herd
I'd signed up with a drover
And I took him at his word
Evening came on quiet
My guilty heart was stirred
To see the sun go sinkin'
Past the point of no return
Sold the cattle in Del Rio
Collected all my pay
And I stared across the Rio Grande
And I wished that I could stay
This side of the border
Where they live the Texas way
But I'll travel on
A branded man
In sorrow all my days
