I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong
As I walked out in the streets of Laredo
Ss I walked out in Laredo one day
I spied a young cowboy wrapped in white linen
Wrapped up in white linen as cold as the clay
I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy
These words he did say as I boldly stepped by
Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story
Got shot in the breast and I know I must die
Beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly
Play the dead march as they carry me away

For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong
Twas once in the saddle I used to go dashing
Twas once in the saddle I used to go gay
First came the drinking and then the card playing
Got shot in the breast and I'm dying today
Get sixteen gamblers to carry my coffin
Get six pretty maidens to bear up my part
Put bunches of roses all over my coffin
Roses to deaden the sod as it falls
Beat the drum slowly...
Thank you for visiting www.mp3lyrics.org, we hope you had fun :-)

He grew up on a dairy farm his family operated outside the city, and he got his first guitar at an early age. By the time he was out of high school, he had joined a country band that was performing at local clubs.
He graduated from Fair Park High School in 1951, and then attended Centenary College of Louisiana. But he left college to join the [Louisiana Hayride]{1} as a regular performer. While on the [Hayride,] he met Webb Pie.....MORE.....(full Faron Young biography) ←
