A broken plate of gazpacho
Broken plate on the freezing ground
Blood on the trail and a torn bandana
Torn bandana, blood on the trail
Smoking gun in the hands of Medina
Pablo Medina with a smoking gun
The trapper that was slain and now besung
Pablo Medina now besung
The trapper that was slain and now besung
The trapper that was slain and now besung
The trapper that was slain and now besung
Pablo Medina with a smoking gun
The bear was followed from the town of Helena
Followed east from Helena
The Blackfoot picked up a trail by the old reservoir
Picked up a trail by the reservoir
The posse then drew him down by Smith River gorge
Smith River gorge is where they drew him down
They shoot my love and skinned him on a Ford
On a flatbed Ford they skinned my love
He was followed east
He was followed east
He was followed east
He was followed east
He was followed east
He was followed east
He ended up on a flatbed Ford
Years later I found myself at the same old creek
I found myself
The water in the river still ran red and deep
Water still ran red and deep
I could hear robins a-humming so cheerily
Humming so cheerily the robins were
By nightfall the fire flies filled the air and chokecherry trees
The water in the river ran red and deep
Red and deep
Red and deep
The water in the river ran red and deep
Robins a-humming in the chokecherry trees
I spent the morning writing on water
Writing on water in the chilly morn'
Adrift and astray in body and mind
Adrift and astray in body and mind
Was it me or my beloved one that killed Medina
Killed him dead
Carbonado se vuelve loca en tu corazón
En tu corazón
I spent the morning writing on water
I spent the morning writing on water
I spent the morning writing on water
Adrift and astray in body and mind
