There's a little girl down south And her daddy's got a ranch about 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 It says you know you're the one I love most of all But My face is up on the sheriffs wall and there's reward signs posted up and down The Red River Line that I cross out every 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 Well I came busting through them gates into a twelve gauge and a thirty-eight, But I was quick on the draw and I got em all, yelled out to Rosa Bella, And she came walking softly through the night, With her hair so long looking at me with those big blue eyes, Well I grabbed her hand and we ran to leave, But her daddy came running from around a tree And said ain't no way my daughters leaving here with no Cherokee Well it might it reach into 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 runnin down this indian highway with a bottle of red I've got a loaded gun and things are going my way for a change Well you might think that I'm gonna be swinging from the trees SongtexteAlthough I'm a spirit boy... Ain't nobody gonna catch me Oh yeah, yeah, yeah and numerous other sounds We made love that very night Under a burnt auburn Cancun sky And I guess now I'm a mexican cause in Texas I'm a wanted man She got up in a long white gown For the man that shot her daddy down Somewhere around in the heat of the night there was a shot And I'm running down this indian highway With a bottle of red I've got a loaded gun and things are going my way for a change yeah Well you might think that I'm gonna be swinging from a tree Although 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 Ain't nobody gonna catch me Yeah....
