Lyle Lovett - Texas River Song текст песни

We crossed the wild pecos

We forded the nueces

We swum the guadalupe

And we followed the brazos

Red river runs rusty

The wichita clear

But down by the brazos

I courted my dear

Singing li, li, li, le, le, le

Lend me your hand

Li, li, li, le, le, le

Lend me your hand

Li, li, li, le, le, le

Lend me your hand

Theres many a river

That waters the land

Now the fair angelina

Runs glossy and gliding

The crooked colorado

Runs weaving and winding

The slow san antonio

Courses and plains

But I never will walk

By the brazos again

She kissed me and she hugged me

And she called me her dandy

The trinitys muddy

But the brazos quick sandy

She kissed me and she hugged me

And she called me her own

But down by the brazos

She left me alone

Now the girls of little river

Theyre plump and theyre pretty

The sabine and the sulphur

Hold beauties amany

The banks of the neches

There are girls by the score

But down by the brazos

Ill wander no more
