Artist/Band: Joe Ely
Lyrics for Song: Letter To Laredo
Lyrics for Album: Musta Notta Gotta Lotta/hi-Res [2009]



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...
