Across the alley from the Alamo lived a Pinto pony and a Navajo
|
Who sang a song of Indian hi-de-ho to the people passing by
|
The pinto spent his time a-swishin' flies and the Navajo watched the lazy skies
|
And very rarely did they ever rest their eyes on the people passing by
|
|
Chorus:
|
|
One day they went out a-walkin' along the railroad track
|
They was swishin' not lookin'.... they never came back
|
Across the alley from the Alamo when the summer sun decides to settle
|
low
|
A fly sings an Indian hi-de-ho to the people passing by
|
|
Instrumental Break
|
|
Repeat chorus
