Wellthere was this movie I seen one time About a man riding cross the desert and it starred Gregory Peck. He was shot down by a hungry kid trying to make a name for himself. The townspeople wanted to crush that kid down and string him up by the neck. Wellthe marshalnow he beat that kid to a bloody pulp as the dying gunfighter lay in the sun and gasped for his last breath. Turn him looselet him golet him say he outdrew me fair and square I want him to feel what it s like to every moment face his death. WellI keep seeing this stuff and it just comes a-rolling in And you know it blows right through me like a ball and chain. You know I can t believe we ve lived so long and are still so far apart. The memory of you keeps callin after me like a rollin train. I can still see the day that you came to me on the painted desert In your busted down Ford and your platform heels I could never figure out why you chose that particular place to meet Ahbut you were right. It was perfect as I got in behind the wheel. Wellwe drove that car all night into San Anton And we slept near the Alamoyour skin was so tender and soft. Way down in Mexico you went out to find a doctor and you never came back. I would have gone on after you but I didn t feel like letting my head get blown off. Wellwe re drivin this car and the sun is comin up over the Rockies Now I know she ain t you but she s here and she s got that dark rhythm in her soul. But I m too over the edge and I ain t in the mood anymore to remember the times when I was your only man And she don t want to remind me. She knows this car would go out of control. Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curlsteeth like pearls shining like the moon above Brownsville girlshow me all around the worldBrownsville girlyou re my honey love. Wellwe crossed the panhandle and then we headed towards Amarillo We pulled up where Henry Porter used to live. He owned a wreckin lot outside of town about a mile. Ruby was in the backyard hanging clothesshe had her red hair tied back. She saw us come rolling up in a trail of dust. She said"Henry ain t here but you can come on inhe ll be back in a little while." Then she told us how times were tough and about how she was thinkin of bummin a ride back to where she started. But ya knowshe changed the subject every time money came up. She said"Welcome to the land of the living dead." You could tell she was so broken-hearted. She said"Even the swap meets around here are getting pretty corrupt." "How far are y all going?" Ruby asked us with a sigh. "We re going all the way til the wheels fall off and burn Til the sun peels the paint and the seat covers fade and the water moccasin dies." Ruby just smiled and said"Ahyou know some babies never learn." Something about that movie thoughwell I just can t get it out of my head But I can t remember why I was in it or what part I was supposed to play. All I remember about it was Gregory Peck and the way people moved And a lot of them seemed to be lookin my way. Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curlsteeth like pearls shining like the moon above Brownsville girlshow me all around the worldBrownsville girlyou re my honey love. Wellthey were looking for somebody with a pompadour. I was crossin the street when shots rang out. I didn t know whether to duck or to runso I ran. "We got him cornered in the churchyard" I heard somebody shout. Wellyou saw my picture in the Corpus Christi Tribune. Underneath itit said"A man with no alibi." You went out on a limb to testify for meyou said I was with you. Then when I saw you break down in front of the judge and cry real tears It was the best acting I saw anybody do. Now I ve always been the kind of person that doesn t like to trespass but sometimes you just find yourself over the line. Oh if there s an original thought out thereI could use it right now. You knowI feel pretty goodbut that ain t sayin much. I could feel a whole lot better If you were just here by my side to show me how. WellI m standin in line in the rain to see a movie starring Gregory Peck Yeahbut you know it s not the one that I had in mind. He s got a new one out nowI don t even know what it s about But I ll see him in anything so I ll stand in line. Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curlsteeth like pearls shining like the moon above Brownsville girlshow me all around the worldBrownsville girlyou re my honey love. You knowit s funny how things never turn out the way you had em planned. The only thing we knew for sure about Henry Porter is that his name wasn t Henry Porter. And you know there was somethin about you baby that I liked that was always too good for this world Just like you always said there was something about me you liked that I left behind in the French Quarter. Strange how people who suffer together have stronger connections than people who are most content. I don t have any regretsthey can talk about me plenty when I m gone. You always said people don t do what they believe inthey just do what s most convenientthen they repent. And I always said"Hang on to mebabyand let s hope that the roof stays on." There was a movie I seen one timeI think I sat through it twice. I don t remember who I was or where I was bound. All I remember about it was it starred Gregory Peckhe wore a gun and he was shot in the back. Seems like a long time agolong before the stars were torn down. Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curlsteeth like pearls shining like the moon above Brownsville girlshow me all around the worldBrownsville girlyou re my honey love.
