John Cale - Live At Rockpalast (Live at Zeche Bochum 06.03.1983 & at Grugahalle Essen 13./14.10.1984)

Streets of Laredo - Live, Zeche Bochum 06.03.1983

As I went out walking the streets of Laredo
As I went out walking Laredo today
I saw a young cowboy all dressed in white linen
Dressed in white linen as cold as the clay

Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story
These words he did say as he boldly walked by
Once up to roses, once down to the card house
I am a young cowboy, I know I must die

You take six jolly cowboys and six pretty maidens
Six pretty maidens to sing me a song
Take bunches of roses to lay on my pillow
Roses to soften the sod as they fall

So bang the drum slowly and play the fife lowly
Sing the death march as they carry me along
Take bunches of roses to lay on my pillow
Roses to soften the sods as they fall

Thank you very much
Good night all
