The Streets of Laredo
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
As I walked out in the streets of Laredo, as I walked out in
Laredo one day.
I spied a young cowboy dressed in white linen. Dressed in white
linen and cold as the clay.
I can see by your outfit that you are a cowboy. You can see by
my outfit I'm a cowboy, too.
You can see by our outfits that we are both cowboys. Get
yourself an outfit and be a cowboy, too!
