<br>Me and my good partners<br>we were riding back to our camp<br>we were feeling very fine<br>and the air was clear and slightly damp<br>and we were riding back to have ourselves a party<br>to celebrate the robbing of the train.<br><br>We were talking kind of low and lazy<br>about not having to go out soon again<br>you know we hadn`t been back home two hours<br>we heard a hawk cry out in the night<br>and you know that`s a signal from young Billy, who`s our sentry<br><br>He`s saying something here ain`t exactly right<br>so we quick grabbed some of our hardware<br>stumbled out of our home<br>in two minutes flat we had found her<br>an Indian girl all alone<br><br>and Eli said, &quot;Let`s take her back to the cabin&quot;<br>I said, &quot;You don`t know she might be the law, yeah&quot;<br>He said, smiling kind of nasty,<br>&quot;It ain`t too damn likely she`ll beat me to the draw.&quot;<br><br>As we were walking back through the darkness,<br>I heard the Duke, he`s our dynamiter, say,<br>he said, &quot;What`s your name, sweet little Indian girl?&quot;<br>She said, &quot;Raven.&quot; and she looked away.<br>Right then I didn`t trust her, no and I said so, oh no.<br><br>Now, Eli, he`s our fastest gunner<br>He`s kind of mean and young from the South<br>he said, &quot;Fat Albert, you`re getting kind of old and weird now.&quot;<br>&quot;You`d better get your twelve gauge shot gun right out.&quot;<br><br>Now Eli and the Duke they got down to it<br>they each wanted the Indian girl for their own<br>but when they finally got around to asking her<br>you know she said she`d come to take young Billy home<br>Eli said he`d kill young Billy<br>he`d kill the Duke, and probably me too, yeah<br><br>The Indian girl said, &quot;Go ahead now do it&quot;<br>I said &quot;Stop it&quot;, and she bit my thumb nearly clean through<br>and when they finally started to break down the door<br>I smeared my face up with blood from my thumb<br>I laid down on the floor and played real good possum<br><br>You know I`m crazy but I ain`t real dumb<br>now I`m dying here in Albuquerque<br>I must be the sorriest sight you ever saw<br>you know the reason I`m the only man here to tell it<br>you know that Indian girl, she wasn`t an Indian she was the law<br><br>(В© Guerrilla Music/BMI)
