Sonidos en Rojo (XV)
Townes Van Zandt near the Red River



We crossed the wild Pecos We forded the Nueces 
We swum the Guadalupe And we followed the Brazos 
Red River runs rusty The Wichita clear 
But down by the Brazos I courted my dear (...)




Singing li, li, li, le, le, le 
Lend me your hand 
Li, li, li, le, le, le 
Lend me your hand 
Li, li, li, le, le, le 
Lend me your hand 
There's many a river That waters the land

Now the fair Angelina Runs glossy and gliding 
The crooked Colorado Runs weaving and winding 
The slow San Antonio Courses and plains 
But I never will walk By the Brazos again

She kissed me and she hugged me And she called me her dandy 
The Trinity's muddy But the Brazos quick sandy 
She kissed me and she hugged me And she called me her own 
But down by the Brazos She left me alone

Now the girls of Little River They're plump and they're pretty 
The Sabine and the Sulphur Hold beauties a'many 
The banks of the Neches There are girls by the score 
But down by the Brazos I'll wander no more
