Born under a s
outh Kentucky
sky
He’d come west to
Mexico to f
ight
1842 at Mier
The g
utters filled with
blood and fear
Barely made it b
ack to Texas a
live
With
Missouri Volun
teers when the war beg
an
In ‘4
6 they c
rossed the Rio G
rande
There he met his dark-eyed love
But s
aid good bye when the
war was done
He
swore that he’d come
back for her a
gain
Oh
oh novi

Oh o
h your m

Maybe he’s in Texas
But we’ll t
ake what God has
left us
And we’ll l
eave for Calif
ornia with the d
awn
Worked his way back
to Old Mexi
co
To rec
laim the love he’d
left two years a
go
Back to those same city walls
Where
he’d watched copper
cannonballs
Like w
ayward suns roll d
own the cobbles
tones

They
put him in a pr

With
other yankee
fools so far from h

Par
ade them through the square in chains
‘T

A

Oh

G
lanton’s men were
killers all by
trade
And t
hrough the prison
bars a deal was m
ade
G
lanton needed three new men
He h
ired the lovelorn
veteran
The k
illers rode out t
hrough the governor’s g
ates
The V

sun
No k

H

When G
lanton’s naked
native scouts
Brought
back his empty
horse and his brand new
gun
Oh
