INTRO)

I was runnin' through Sonora lookin' for a place to hide

I robbed a bank in Chihuahua they told me that the teller died

now I'm drinking cheap tequila with a black-jack dealer, abig-eyed chaquita at my side

Lord tell me, how long can a man go wrong when a home is all he'stryin' to find

 

I was ridin' through the dessert looking for an Indian guide

I was searchin' for peyote and a wise man who never had lied

then the dirty federales chased me clean to Nogales tell me, wheredoes the secret lie

Lord tell me, how long can a man go wrong when a home is all he'stryin' to find

Lord tell me, how long

Lord tell me, how long

Lord tell me

how long can a man go wrong when a home is all he's tryin' tofind

I was hidin' in a station, waitin' on a train to ride

I saw my face on a poster, it said I'm wanted Dead Or Alive

so now I'm back in Sonora with a half-breed whore

and it seems like I'm at the end of the line

Lord tell me, how long can a man go wrong when a home is all he'stryin' to find

Lord tell me, how long

Lord tell me, how long

Lord tell me, how long can a man go wrong when a home is all he'stryin' to find
