Well, I spent last night
In Las Cruces jail
Rain and hail, born to fail
Nobody come for to go my bail
Sun, don't you rise no more?
Guess I killed one man on the county line
Took his dime and I blew his mind
Now I'm just sittin' here, doin' time
Sun, don't you rise no more
A restless wind is whistling
Through the canyons, through my head
Through all the straits that I've survived
And in my hour of darkness
I keep counsel with the dead
Just enough to remind me I'm alive
I wrote to the governor for to hear my plea
But he don't even answer me
The judge said
He's bound to set my spirit free
Sun, don't you rise no more?
Gavel fell, he chose the day
Friday, the thirteenth of May
But I don't plan to go that way
Sun, don't you rise no more?
That's twenty one fell by my gun
With bullets in their brains
Just need one more to match my age
Then I'll count my killin' done
But I won't deny my name
Quickest wrist
Of the chaparral and sage
Now desperate times
Call for desperate men
I'm just a kid but I'll pretend
My time will come but until then
Sun, don't you rise no more?
But I see that gallows altar
That circle 'round the sun
They'll hang me if I stay here
Shoot me if I run
That jailer better watch his pride
Or off my wrists these shackles slide
Hear my restless forty five
Sun, don't you rise no more?
And down the valley, down the road
To infamy I'll ride
I'll take my pardon on the run
With a trail of death behind me
And Deluvina at my side
Two silhouettes against the sun
Goodnight, my Andalucía
Don't buy all the lies that they feed ya
And while you're heading slowly
To some place I can't respect
I'll keep you in my collection of regrets
Well, I spent last night
In Las Cruces jail
Rain and hail, born to fail
Nobody come for to go my bail
Sun, don' t you rise no more?
Guess I killed one man on the county line
Took his dime and I blew his mind
Now I' m just sittin' here, doin' time
Sun, don' t you rise no more
A restless wind is whistling
Through the canyons, through my head
Through all the straits that I' ve survived
And in my hour of darkness
I keep counsel with the dead
Just enough to remind me I' m alive
I wrote to the governor for to hear my plea
But he don' t even answer me

He' s bound to set my spirit free
Sun, don' t you rise no more?
Gavel fell, he chose the day
Friday, the thirteenth of May
But I don' t plan to go that way
Sun, don' t you rise no more?
That' s twenty one fell by my gun
With bullets in their brains
Just need one more to match my age
Then I' ll count my killin' done
But I won' t deny my name
Quickest wrist
Of the chaparral and sage

Call for desperate men
I' m just a kid but I' ll pretend
My time will come but until then

And down the valley, down the road
To infamy I' ll ride
I' ll take my pardon on the run
With a trail of death behind me
And Deluvina at my side
Two silhouettes against the sun
Goodnight, my Andaluc shy a
Don' t buy all the lies that they feed ya
And while you' re heading slowly
To some place I can' t respect
I' ll keep you in my collection of regrets
Well, I spent last night
