John Eustrom with Outlaw Lullaby, the tale of a lawless man being pursued for his misdeeds.
John Eustrom Outlaw Lullaby Lyrics:
I robbed a bank in Hondo
Nowhere's left to go
Stole a horse from an old man
Just to get to Mexico
And the dust I leave behind me
On this broken trail
There ain't no time to stop and rest
The law is on my tail
Well I reached Nueces River
With a ranger on the other side
Grabbed my ole Winchester
And cocked my 45s
Well I raised my barrel
As we caught each others eyes
He never saw it coming
I took that lawman's life
So I'll ride
Making my way by the moonlight
But it's night
Chasing me across to the other side
And the rain starts to fall
As the Angels start to cry
Singing to me an outlaw lullaby
I could see that posse ridin'
From the top of this hill
Twenty miles outside of a place called Brackettville
My wanted poster's on the wall Dead or Alive
My bounty keeps growing it makes it hard to survive
I rode into Del Rio that little bordertown
Yeah shots rang out and I fell to the ground
Sky turns to red and there's a shadow over me
That Colt 45 is the last thing that I see
So I'll ride
Making my way by the moonlight
But it's night
Chasing me across to the other side
And the blood starts to fall
As the Angels start to cry
Singing to me an outlaw lullaby
Singing to me an outlaw lullaby
Outlaw lullaby
