Chris Cagle - Laredo lyrics

rate me

You've always been a friend of mine

And that's the way we'll be 'til the day I die

It's good to know you're on my side

'Cause now you know she's leaving me

And I need your help to make her see

So turn on your charm and let it shine

'Cause you've always been the one

Who could make her stay around

So when she gets to the city limit sign

Don't let me down

Oh Laredo, don't let her go

Just take by the heart

And let the wheels turn slow

Oh Laredo, you're my only hope

So get her back to the day we met

'Cause that's as far as she needs to get

But please don't let her go

Oh Laredo

Make her think about the moonlit walks

And the long, long talks by the waters edge

With her feet hanging off the Cane Creek Bridge

And bring to mind the first kiss we shared

At the old town square when she drives down there

'Cause that's a day she said she could never forget

Keep the nights by the candlelight

As an ace in the hole

'Cause those are nights of passion

That I know will bring her home

Oh Laredo, don't let her go

Just take by the heart

And let the wheels turn slow

Oh Laredo, you're my only hope

So get her back to the day we met

'Cause that's as far as she needs to get

But please don't let her go

Oh Laredo

Oh Laredo, don't let her go

Just take by the heart

And let the wheels turn slow

Oh Laredo, you're my only hope

So get her back to the day we met

'Cause that's as far as she needs to get

But please don't let her go

Oh Laredo
