THE ARIZONA KILLER (Katie Lee) I killed a man in Dallas, And another in Cheyenne But when I killed the man in Tombstone I overplayed my hand I rode all night for Tucson To rob the Robles Mine And I left old Arizona With a posse right behind I rode across the border And there it did not fail The men that was a-follerin' me They soon did lose my trail; they lost my trail They galloped back to Tucson To get the Cavalry While I stayed on in Mexico Enjoying liberty; Ayi-ha, enjoyed my liberty I promised my Rosita A pretty dress of blue She said, "You'd go and get it If you really loved me true; did love me true" So I went back to the border Just to get that gal a dress I killed a man in Guaymas And two in Nogales; killed two in Nogales But the posse was a-waitin' To get me on the trail Now in Tombstone I'm a layin' In the Cochise County jail; the Cochise County jail They-re gonna hang me in the morning A'fore this night is done They're gonna hang me in the mornin' And I'll never see the sun I want to warn you fellers And tell you one by one What makes a gallows rope to swing A woman and a gun note: Ms. Lee's rewrite of The Tennessee Killer @cowboy @outlaw filename[ ARIZKLLR DP oct97 |
