Tekst piosenki:
There's a little girl down south
and her daddy's got a ranch
'bout as big as my town
and one day I swear
I'm gonna go down there and get her out
from the letter that I got last fall
she said you know you're the one I love most of all
but my face is up on the sheriff's wall
and there's reward signs posted up
and down the red river line
that I cross that every night
trying to find my heart and looking for a fight
and there were four guards standing on the wall
I drew two six-guns & idots
and I watched them fall
oh yeah
yeah
well I came busting through them gates
into a 12 gauge nad a 38
but I was quick on the draw and I got 'em all
yelled out to Rosa Bella
as she came walking softly through the night
her hair so long and looking at me
with those big blue eyes
I grabbed her hand and we ran to leave
but her daddy came a-running from around a tree and said
"ain't no way my daughter's leaving here with no Cherokee"
oh yeah
well, in my rage and to his surprise
I looked him deep in his buckshot eyes
and he had his hand on his gun but I was holding mine
and I'm running down this Indian highway in a ball of red
I got a loaded gun and things are goin' my way for a change
well, you might think that I'm gonna be swingin' from a tree
oh, no I'm a spirit boy
ain't nobody gonna catch me
no, yeah, yeah, yeah...
(chanting)
we made love that very night
under a burnt auburn cancun sky
I guess now I'm a Mexican
'cause in Texas I'm a wanted man
she got up in an all-white gown
from the man who shot her daddy down
somewhere in the heat of the night there was a shot & idots
and I'm running down this Indian highway
in a ball of red
I got a loaded gun and things are goin' my way for a change
yeah
well, you might think that I'm gonna be swingin' from a tree
I know I'm a spirit boy
ain't nobody gonna catch me
yeah
I'm a spirit boy
ain't nobody gonna catch me
yeah
I'm a spirit boy
yeah
ain't nobody gonna catch me
yeah
