Del Rio Dan

He's an outlaw

The devil's friend

He is good, he is bad

Bound to do what he can

Ain't been nothin' like him, since the Billy the Kid

C C Younger was his best friend

They shared the same women

And they met the same end

Worked midnight's together at the river bend

Back-packin' kilos ‘cross the Rio Grande

Del Rio Dan is a wanted man

By the Federales and My-oh-My Queens

Spends his nights walkin' in the Villa Cuna sand

Waitin' in the Canebrake, for José to come

Knowing that at daybreak, they must be gone

All across the river

To the Texas sun

Del Rio Dan is a wanted man

With a Stetson hat

And a snakeskin band

Del Rio Dan is a wanted man

By the Federales and My oh My Queens

Del Rio Dan is a wanted man

With a Stetson hat

And a snakeskin band
