Laredo

You've always been a friend of mine

And that's the way we'll be, 'til the day I die

Yeah, it's good to know you're on my side

'Cause now you know she's leavin' me

And I need your help to make her see

So turn on your charm and let it shine

'Cause you've always been the one who could make her stay around

So when she gets to the city limits sign

Don't let me down

Oh-whoa Laredo

Don't let her go

Just take her by the heart

And let the wheels turn slow

Whoa-oh Laredo

You're my only hope

So get her back to the day we met

'Cause that's as far as she needs to get

Oh, but please don't let her go

Oh Laredo

Make her think 'bout the moonlit walks

And the long long talks by the waters edge

With her feet hangin' off the Canyon Creek Bridge

And bring to mind the first kiss we shared

At the Old Town Square when she drives down there

'Cause that's the day she said she could never forget

And keep the nights by the candlelight

As an ace in the hole

'Cause those are nights of passion

That I know will bring her home

Oh-whoa Laredo

Don't let her go

Just take her by the heart

And let the wheels turn slow

Whoa-oh Laredo,

You're my only hope

So get her back to the day we met

'Cause that's as far as she needs to get

Oh, but please don't let her go

Oh Laredo!

Whoa-oh Laredo

Don't let her go

Take her by the heart

And let the wheels turn slow

Whoa-oh Laredo

You're my only hope

So get her back to the day we met

'Cause that's as far as she needs to get

Oh, but please don't let her go

Oh Laredo!

Don't let her go!

You're my only hope!

Whoa Laredo, oh
