๐ Lyrics
Down in the hollow
The desert been hot and dry
Up come a hungry payroll
Lookin' me in the eye
Lookin' me in the eye
River water falling
Off his bones
Ain't nowhere a border dog
Might call home
Might call a home
Walk with the horses
Cross the river bed
Ranchero voices
Ain't his friend
I sleep with my Bernardine
Under that desert sky
Rio shakes as he dreams
Maybe of mankind
Maybe of mankind
If some caballero
Would only treat Rio right
Then my good friend might not have been
Crossin' that borderline
Crossin' that borderline
Rio cries
Rio moans
He's worn his skin through his short life
Like a desert stone
Rio Grande's runnin' low
Just like those who cross
Rio runs all alone
For something he ain't got
For something he ain't got
Walk with the horses
Cross the river bed
Ranchero voices
Ain't his friend
Rio cries
Rio moans
He's worn his skin through his short life
Like a desert stone
The desert been hot and dry
Up come a hungry payroll
Lookin' me in the eye
Lookin' me in the eye
River water falling
Off his bones
Ain't nowhere a border dog
Might call home
Might call a home
Walk with the horses
Cross the river bed
Ranchero voices
Ain't his friend
I sleep with my Bernardine
Under that desert sky
Rio shakes as he dreams
Maybe of mankind
Maybe of mankind
If some caballero
Would only treat Rio right
Then my good friend might not have been
Crossin' that borderline
Crossin' that borderline
Rio cries
Rio moans
He's worn his skin through his short life
Like a desert stone
Rio Grande's runnin' low
Just like those who cross
Rio runs all alone
For something he ain't got
For something he ain't got
Walk with the horses
Cross the river bed
Ranchero voices
Ain't his friend
Rio cries
Rio moans
He's worn his skin through his short life
Like a desert stone
