CLivin' on the road, my friend
GWas gonna keep us free and clean
Fnow you wear your skin like iron
ACnd your breath's as hard Gas kerosene
Fweren't your mama's only boy
CBut her favorite one, it seFems
AmShe began to cry when yFou said Ggood bye
FAnd sank into your dAmreams
Verse 2. CPancho was a bandit, boys
Ghorse fast as polished steel
FWore his guns outside his pants
CFor all the honest world Gto feel
FPancho met his match, you know
COn the deserts down iFn Mexico
Am]Nobody heard his dyin' Fwords G. [FBut that's the way iAmt goes
Chorus. FAnd all the federales say
CThey could have had him any Fday
AmThey only let him hFang arounGd
Out of Fkindness, I suppAmose
Verse 3. CLefty he can't sing the blues
GAll night long like he used to
FThe dust that Pancho bit down South
CIt ended up in Lefty'Gs mouth
FThe day they laid poor Pancho low
C]Lefty split for Ohio F. [AmWhere he got the bread tFo go G
Fahh there ain't nobodAmy 'knows
Chorus.
Verse 4. Cpoets tell how Pancho fell
GLefty's livin' in a cheap hotel
FThe desert's quiet and Cleveland's cold
CAnd so the story ends, weG're told
FPancho needs your prayers, it's true
CBut save a few for Lefty, toFo
Am]He only did what he had to dFo G. [FAnd now he's growin' Amold
Chorus.
Final Chorus. FYes a few old gray federales still say
CThey could have had him any Fday
Am]They only let him go so Fwrong G. Out of [Fkindness, I suppoAmse
