Living on the road my friend, is gonna keep you free and clean
G                                D                       A

You weren't your mama's only boy, but her favorite one it seems
Bm                        G    D    A  G                   Bm     Bm A D
She began to cry when you said goodbye, And sank into your dreams

Pancho was a bandit boy, his horse was fast as polished steel
G                                 D                    A
He wore his gun outside his pants. For all the honest world to feel

Bm                G    D  A  G                      Bm     Bm A D
They only let him slip away    out of kindness, I suppose
D                             A
Lefty, he can't sing the blues all night long like he used to
G                                  D           A
The dust that Pancho bit down south ended up in Lefty's mouth
G                                  D               G
The day they laid poor Pancho low, Lefty split for Ohio
Bm               G     D   A G                   Bm     Bm A G
Where he got the bread to go, there ain't nobody knows

The poets tell how Pancho fell, and Lefty's living in cheap hotels
G                                     D                A
The desert's quiet, Cleveland's cold, And so the story ends we're told
G                                   D                   G
Pancho needs your prayers it's true, but save a few for Lefty too
Bm                   G   D  A  G                      Bm    Bm A G

All the Federales say they could have had him any day
Bm                G    D  A   G                    Bm      Bm A G

A few gray Federales say they could have had him any day
