Lyrics
Living on the road, my friend Was gonna keep you free and clean Now you wear your skin like iron And your breath's as hard as kerosene You weren't your mama's only son But her favorite one, it seems She began to cry when you said goodbye And sank into your dreams Pancho was a bandit, boys His horse was fast as polished steel Wore his gun outside his pants For all the honest world to feel Pancho met his match, you know On the borders down in Mexico And nobody heard his dying words And that's the way it goes And all the federales say They coulda had him any day They only let him hang around Out of kindness, I suppose
