Chris Cagle - Laredo lyrics

you've always been a friend'o mine

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

whoa, laredo

don't let her go

just take her by the heart and let the wheels turn slow

whoa, 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

whoa, laredo

make her think about the moonlit walks and the long, long talks

by the water's edge

with her feet hangin' off the cancreek bridge

bring to mind the first kiss we shared at the old town square

when we drove down there

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

keep the nights in the candlelight as an ace in the hole

'cause those are nights of passion that I know will bring her home

repeat chorus
