Adiós Old Friend lyrics

You were headed For some border town To find a Spanish rose And settle down You hitched a ride On a southbound Mexican wind Adiós old friend I heard you made it Far as El Paso Those Texas rangers Would not let it go They shot you down On the banks of the Rio Grande Adiós old friend Do angels sing for outlaws? Well I don't know But I know outlaws pray And I pray it's so Old friend Outside these bars I hear that mission bell That hangman waits To send me straight to hell Well this ain't where I thought Our trail would end Adiós old friend Do angels sing for outlaws? Well I don't know But I know outlaws pray And I pray it's so Old friend Maybe one day we'll ride again Adiós old friend Adiós old friend
