| [00:09.79] |
On a winter night in Webb County, Texas |
| [00:15.96] |
On the north bank of the mighty Rio Grande |
| [00:22.10] |
I was watchin' the jungle fires a-burnin' |
| [00:27.96] |
Across the border of a not-so-distant land |
| [00:34.55] |
And the echoes of the church bells that were swingin' |
| [00:40.32] |
Could be heard from Guadalupe Market Square |
| [00:46.76] |
There was a girl down there on the south side of the river |
| [00:52.76] |
She had feathers tied into her long black hair |
| [00:56.71] |
|
| [00:59.50] |
And if I was I was white-crowned sparrow |
| [01:04.89] |
Well, I would float upon the southern skies of blue |
| [01:11.43] |
But I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo |
| [01:17.99] |
Wishin' I was rollin' back to you |
| [01:24.47] |
|
| [01:26.86] |
I put on my favorite jacket for Jamboozie |
| [01:33.46] |
I painted up my eyes and wore my beads |
| [01:39.22] |
There was a band playin' "To God Be the Glory" |
| [01:45.45] |
There were people dancin' all around the street |
| [01:51.50] |
There were barrels on the sidewalk that were burnin' |
| [01:58.07] |
And a fortune-teller readin' people's hands |
| [02:03.86] |
And I swear, I heard those church bells ringin' |
| [02:10.11] |
'Cross the border of a not-so-distant land |
| [02:15.51] |
|
| [02:16.67] |
Singing, if I was white-crowned sparrow |
| [02:22.17] |
Well, I would float upon the southern skies of blue |
| [02:29.25] |
But I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo |
| [02:35.51] |
Wishin' I was rollin' back to you |
| [02:42.20] |
And if I was I was white-crowned sparrow |
| [02:47.49] |
Well, I would float upon the southern skies of blue |
| [02:54.26] |
But I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo |
| [03:01.00] |
Wishin' I was rollin' back to you |
| [03:03.94] |
|
| [03:06.99] |
I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo |
| [03:13.33] |
Wishin' I was rollin' back to you |
| [03:21.41] |
Wish I was rollin' back, back to you |
| [03:27.66] |
Wish I was rollin' back to you |
| [03:33.95] |
Wish I was rollin' back to you |
