Rio Grande - Freedom Fry

I was somewhere out west in El Paso

Or maybe it was Mexico

With a brown eyed girl

In a mezcal world

She was someone that I didn’t know

I didn’t didn’t didn’t know

Was headed for a little vacation

To get away from my sorrows

But it’s an empty place

When you miss the face

Of the only love you’ve ever known

All the wild birds

Sing a cowboy song

On the Rio Grande

Cause my love is gone

Every single man

Rides off into the sun

On the Rio Grande

Drinking till the dawn

Cause my love is gone

It was somewhere out west in El Paso

Where they say I lost my soul

Yoy let the vultures fly

When you waved goodbye

Now I’m someone that I didn’t know

I didn’t didn’t didn’t know

Was headed for a little vacation

To get away form my sorrows

But the days are hot

And you’re all I’ve got

Just a memory to keep me going

All the wild birds

Sing a cowboy song

On the Rio Grande

Cause my love is gone

Every single man

Rides off into the sun

On the Rio Grande

Drinking till the dawn

Cause my love is gone

I was walking away from El Paso

But it wouldn’t let me go

I got carried away

In a river of wine

Faoun the basement of the Alamo

The Ala Alamo

Was looking for a little salvation

But wound up sleeping in a hole

Cause I crossed the wrong man

Whit a gun in his hand

Now I’m dying babe, I love you so

All the wild birds

Sing a cowboy song

On the Rio Grande

Cause my love is gone

Every single man

Rides off into the sun

On the Rio Grande

Drinking till the dawn

Cause my love is gone
