Lyrics
[Intro] 'Twas in the town of Griffin In the year of '65 A well known famous drover [Verse 1] 'Twas in the town of Griffin In the year of '65 A well-known, famous drover Stepped up to me and talked Sayin' "How do you do, young cowboy?" And "How'd you like to go Spend the summer pleasantly In the hills of Mexico?" [Verse 2] Well, me being out of work right then To this drover I did say "Well, this goin' out on the buffalo range Depends on your pay But if you pay good wages Transportation to and fro I think I might go with you To the hills of Mexico" [Verse 3] Well, we crossed the Latin river, boys Our troubles they begun Lightning flashеd like hellfire And madе the cattle run I tread towards the hiding place There is hot as snow Comanches waiting to pick us off On the hills of Mexico [Outro] (You don't have to take this one down. You don't have to... You're just wasting, wasting tape)
