1
On the Chissom Trail it was midnight
2
Carmela was strong on his mind
3
Because of the life he had chosen
4
Carmela had left him behind
5
Too long he'd been a bandito
6
Carmela had left him alone
7
But today someone brought a message
8
She'd been seen in old San Antone
9
Cross the Brazos at Waco
10
Ride hard and I'll make it by dawn
11
Cross the Brazos at Waco
12
I'm safe when I reach San Antone
13
He glanced back over his shoulder
14
The possee was nowhere in sight
15
He'd sent for Carmela to meet him
16
On the banks of the Brazos tonight
17
She was waiting and he kept the promise
18
He'd made such a long time ago
19
As he dropped the guns that she hated
20
In the muddy Brazos below
21
Cross the Brazos at Waco
22
Ride hard and I'll make it by dawn
23
Cross the Brazos at Waco
24
I'm safe when I reach San Antone
25
Then the night came alive with gunfire
26
He knew that at last he'd been found
27
As the Ranger's badge shone brightly
28
El bandito lay on the ground
29
Carmela knew he was dyin'
30
That all of her dreams were in vain
31
As she kissed his lips for the last time
32
She heard him whisper again
33
Cross the Brazos at Waco
34
Ride hard and I'll make it by dawn
35
Cross the Brazos at Waco
36
I'm safe when I reach San Antone
