Wheels Of Laredo - The Highwomen

If I was White-Crowned Sparrow, well I would float upon the southern skies of blue, but I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo, wishing I was rolling back to you. I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo, wishing I was rolling back to you. Wish I was rolling back, back to you. Wish I was rolling back to you. Wish I was rolling back to you.

On a winter night in Webb County, Texas, on the north bank of the mighty Rio Grande, I was watching the jungle fires a-burnin' across the border of a not-so-distant land. And the echoes of the church bells that were swingin could be heard from Guadalupe Market Square. There was a girl down there in the south side of the river. She had feathers tied into her long black hair. And if I was I was White-Crowned Sparrow, well I would float upon the southern skies of blue. But I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo, wishing I was rolling back to you.

I put on my favorite jacket for Jamboozie. I painted up my eyes and wore my beads. There was a band playing To God Be the Glory. There were people dancing all around the street. There were barrels on the sidewalk that were burning. And a fortune-teller readin' people's hands. And I swear, I heard those church bells ringing 'cross the border of a not-so-distant land. Singing, if I was White-Crowned Sparrow, well I would float upon the southern skies of blue. But I'm stuck inside the wheels of Laredo wishing I was rolling back to you.
