The Day the Rio Grande Ran Red
We sat on the bank Of the Rio Grande Guns at our side our boots in the sand And I tried to skip Stones across While Billy just watched See me and Billy were friends since we were nine Grammar school rodeos and fishing line But now we've grown to an age so ripe No real division between wrong and right Well Billy said 'Clay I must confess. I've had good friends and you've been the best. But something happened the other night you ought to know.' Well I loved that Billy just like he was kin The tone of his voice had the taint of sin So I turned around, looked him straight in the eye And hoped no one was going to have to die Well Billy said 'Clay this is sure hard to say But I've got to get it out There's no other way Late last night while you were resting your head Your woman was with another man In his bed In his bed.' Well I felt like I'd just been stabbed with a knife I couldn't imagine that my dear wife Would go into the arms of another man Not her own Well suddenly my eyes they saw red And I wanted that stealing bastard dead もっと沢山の歌詞は ※ Mojim.com And I wanted to meet him one on one And I … to meet him and my gun Well Billy said 'Wait there is so much more Don't go calling your wife a cheating whore I know the man to blames identity That man is me That man is me.'
Well I fell back shocked I could not believe My best friend Billy was a back stabbing thief My legs went numb and my throat went dry I would have given him anything But he taken my wife Well Billy began to sob He got down on his knees He said 'I'm sorry, I'm sorry for your forgiveness I plead!' I couldn't face him I turned away There was nothing more I wanted to say Now in an impulse of hate I grabbed my gun And I shot at the sky Straight at the sun And then I leveled it off at young Billy's head It was the only day The Rio Grande ran red
