Country Love Songs Cross The Brazos At Waco Lyrics

Cross The Brazos At Waco Lyrics

(Chorus) 

Cross the Brazos at Waco 

Ride hard and I'll make it by dawn 

Cross the Brazos at Waco 

I'm safe when I reach San Antone 



On the Chisholm Trail it was midnight 

Carmella was strong on his mind 

Because of the life he had chosen 

Carmella had left him behind 

Too long he'd been a bandito 

Carmella had left him alone 

But today someone brought a message 

She'd been seen in old San Antone 



(Chorus) 



Then the night came alive with gunfire 

He knew that at last he'd been found 

As the range of badges shone brightly 

A bandit a lay on the ground 

Carmella she knew he was dying 

That all of her dreams were in vain 

As she kissed his lips for the last time 

She heard him whisper again 



(Chorus)
