Ghosts Of Laredo Lyrics

The Rio Grande is runnin' low
And I can see the dust of Mexico
The desert sun is settin' down
On this old border town
And she's still gone
Tequila helps me fight the pain
But her memory remains
I got this pain inside of me
And it won't never leave
'Cause she's still gone

And she said she always wanted to dance
On the streets of Laredo in the hot dusty sand
And I know she's watchin' every move that I make
And I just want to see her again in the end in Laredo

I keep her picture in my pocket
The one we took on our wedding day
And I pull it out every time that I hear it sound
And I cuss the angels that took her away And she said she always wanted to dance
On the streets of Laredo in the hot dusty sand
And I know she's watchin' every move that I make
And I just want to see her again in the end in Laredo

And I'm standin' on the edge of the river
And I'm watchin' the water slowly pass me by
So I pull out the bottle I've been drinkin'
Because she knows my heart's been sinkin'
I jump in and then I close my eyes

And she said she always wanted to dance
On the streets of Laredo in the hot dusty sand
And the stars shine down so bright on the Rio
And I'm with her again in the end in Laredo
In Laredo
In Laredo
