Spirit Boy lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Spirit Boy lyrics There s a little girl down south And her daddy s got a ranch Bout as big as my town And one day I swear I m gonna go down there and get her out From the letter that I got last fall She said you know you re the one I love most of all But my face is up on the sheriff s wall And there s reward signs posted up And down the red river line That I cross that very night Trying to find my heart and looking for a fight And there were four guards standing on the wall I drew two six-guns And I watched them fall Oh yeah Yeah Well I came busting through them gates Into a 12 gauge and a 38 But I was quick on the draw and I got em all Yelled out to Rosa Bella As she came walking softly through the night Her hair so long and looking at me With those big blue eyes I grabbed her hand and we ran to leave But her daddy came a-running from around a tree And said "Ain t no way my daughter s leaving here with no cherokee" Oh yeah Well, in my rage and to his surprise I looked him deep in his buckshot eyes And he had his hand on his gun but I was holding mine And I m running down this indian highway In a ball of red I got a loaded gun and things are goin my way for a change Well, you might think that I m gonna be swingin from a tree Oh, no I m a spirit boy Ain t nobody gonna catch me No, yeah, yeah, yeah... (chanting) We made love that very night Under a burnt auburn cancun sky I guess now I m a Mexican Cause in Texas I m a wanted man She got up in an all-white gown From the man who shot her daddy down Somewhere in the heat of the night there was a shot & idots And I m running down this indian highway In a ball of red I got a loaded gun and things are goin my way for a change Yeah Well, you might think that I m gonna be swingin from a tree I know I m a spirit boy Ain t nobody gonna catch me Yeah I m a spirit boy Ain t nobody gonna catch me Yeah I m a spirit boy Yeah Ain t nobody gonna catch me Yeah song lyrics
