As I was rolling across the Mississippi I stopped there and I cried No use for a man to keep a mighty river All dammed up inside
I jumped bail from the Sweetwater County Now I`m on the run On my head is a five number bounty For a crime I never done
Take this letter to Laredo To the one I love Tell her to stay low Beneath the stars above Her love is my only alibi It`s for her love I lied Yeah, yeah, yeah "Why did Frankie have to pull that trigger? Why did you have to hide? The sheriff still thinks I was standing with her It`s for your love I lied."
"Love will make a free man a prisioner Will make an honest man lie Love can be tough, love can be tender It`s my only alibi"
Take this Letter to Laredo To the one I love Tell her to stay low Beneath the stars above Her love is my only alibi It`s for her love I lied... Yeah, yeah, yeah...
