[00:10.16]Brownsville Girl
[00:11.48]
[00:19.26]Well, there was this movie i seen one time,
[00:29.51]About a man riding 'cross the desert and it starred gregory peck.
[00:31.36]He was shot down by a hungry kid trying to make a name for himself.
[00:37.39]The townspeople wanted to crush that kid down and string him up by the neck.
[00:41.45]
[00:44.99]Well, the marshal, now he beat that kid to a bloody pulp
[00:51.39]As the dying gunfighter lay in the sun and gasped for his last breath.
[00:58.10]Turn him loose, let him go, let him say he outdrew me fair and square,
[01:04.28]I want him to feel what it's like to every moment face his death.
[01:07.81]
[01:11.29]Well, i keep seeing this stuff and it just comes a-rolling in
[01:17.67]And you know it blows right through me like a ball and chain.
[01:24.02]You know i can't believe we've lived so long and are still so far apart.
[01:31.70]The memory of you keeps callin' after me like a rollin' train.
[01:35.96]
[01:38.05]I can still see the day that you came to me on the painted desert
[01:45.09]In your busted down ford and your platform heels
[01:51.98]I could never figure out why you chose that particular place to meet
[01:58.87]Ah, but you were right. it was perfect as i got in behind the wheel.
[02:03.70]
[02:05.40]Well, we drove that car all night into san anton'
[02:12.57]And we slept near the alamo, your skin was so tender and soft.
[02:18.93]Way down in mexico you went out to find a doctor and you never came back.
[02:26.42]I would have gone on after you but i didn't feel like letting my head get blown off.
[02:30.39]
[02:32.18]Well, we're drivin' this car and the sun is comin' up over the rockies,
[02:38.90]Now i know she ain't you but she's here and she's got that dark rhythm in her soul.
[02:47.93]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
[02:53.40]And she don't want to remind me. she knows this car would go out of control.
[02:56.73]
[03:04.64]Brownsville girl with your brownsville curls, teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
[03:13.15]Brownsville girl, show me all around the world, brownsville girl, you're my honey love.
[03:23.02]
[03:25.94]Well, we crossed the panhandle and then we headed towards amarillo
[03:32.30]We pulled up where henry porter used to live. he owned a wreckin' lot outside of town about a mile.
[03:39.75]Ruby was in the backyard hanging clothes, she had her red hair tied back. she saw us come rolling up in a trail of dust.
[03:46.70]She said, ''henry ain't here but you can come on in, he'll be back in a little while.''
[03:52.50]Then she told us how times were tough and about how she was thinkin' of bummin' a ride back to where she started.
[04:00.14]But ya know, she changed the subject every time money came up.
[04:05.87]She said, ''welcome to the land of the living dead.''you could tell she was so broken-hearted.
[04:12.93]She said, ''even the swap meets around here are getting pretty corrupt.''
[04:19.85]''how far are y'all going?'' ruby asked us with a sigh.
[04:26.67]''we're going all the way 'til the wheels fall off and burn,
[04:32.55]'til the sun peels the paint and the seat covers fade and the water moccasin dies.''
[04:40.73]Ruby just smiled and said, ''ah, you know some babies never learn.''
[04:46.36]Something about that movie though, well i just can't get it out of my head
[04:52.74]But i can't remember why i was in it or what part i was supposed to play.
[04:59.63]All i remember about it was gregory peck and the way people moved
[05:05.88]And a lot of them seemed to be lookin' my way.
[05:08.81]
[05:19.93]Brownsville girl with your brownsville curls, teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
[05:32.19]Brownsville girl, show me all around the world, brownsville girl, you're my honey love.
[05:36.66]
[05:53.67]Well, they were looking for somebody with a pompadour.
[05:59.42]I was crossin' the street when shots rang out.
[06:06.69]I didn't know whether to duck or to run, so i ran.
[06:11.97]''we got him cornered in the churchyard,''i heard somebody shout.
[06:16.25]
[06:19.65]Well, you saw my picture in the corpus christi tribune. underneath it, it said, ''aman with no alibi.''
[06:24.96]You went out on a limb to testify for me, you said i was with you.
[06:31.78]Then when i saw you break down in front of the judge and cry real tears,
[06:35.84]It was the best acting i saw anybody do.
[06:41.02]
[06:46.23]Now i've always been the kind of person that doesn't like to trespass but sometimes you just find yourself over the line.
[06:52.66]Oh if there's an original thought out there, i could use it right now.
[07:00.54]You know, i feel pretty good, but that ain't sayin' much. i could feel a whole lot better,
[07:04.98]If you were just here by my side to show me how.
[07:08.83]
[07:13.93]Well, i'm standin' in line in the rain to see a movie starring gregory peck,
[07:17.52]Yeah, but you know it's not the one that i had in mind.
[07:24.15]He's got a new one out now, i don't even know what it's about
[07:28.72]But i'll see him in anything so i'll stand in line.
[07:33.31]
[07:37.86]Brownsville girl with your brownsville curls, teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
[07:52.33]Brownsville girl, show me all around the world, brownsville girl, you're my honey love.
[08:00.76]
[08:29.94]You know, it's funny how things never turn out the way you had 'em planned.
[08:35.49]The only thing we knew for sure about henry porter is that his name wasn't henry porter.
[08:42.43]And you know there was somethin' about you baby that i liked that was always too good for this world
[08:53.26]Just like you always said there was something about me you liked that i left behind in the french quarter.
[08:54.01]
[08:55.19]Strange how people who suffer together have stronger connections than people who are most content.
[09:01.79]I don't have any regrets, they can talk about me plenty when i'm gone.
[09:08.51]You always said people don't do what they believe in, they just do what's most convenient, then they repent.
[09:15.17]And i always said, ''hang on to me, baby, and let's hope that the roof stays on.''
[09:21.57]There was a movie i seen one time, i think i sat through it twice.
[09:25.70]I don't remember who i was or where i was bound.
[09:40.55]All i remember about it was it starred gregory peck, he wore a gun and he was shot in the back.
[09:41.51]Seems like a long time ago, long before the stars were torn down.
[09:44.96]
[09:48.15]Brownsville girl with your brownsville curls, teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
[10:00.75]Brownsville girl, show me all around the world, brownsville girl, you're my honey love.
