Sun’s going down on the border tonight She’s got that red dress on It’s been a while now since I’ve held her tight And I still can’t believe she’s gone. Well, I worked them oil rigs for three years straight And I reckon I made pretty fair pay She poured drinks at a roadhouse bar And she never had a lot to say So late one evening after she got off We took a ride to the edge of town On the hood of my car ‘neath the desert sky Yeah, we laid a little lovin’ down Yeah, we laid a little lovin’ down. (Chorus) Oh girl, you’re one of a kind Stole my heart on that Texas line Never had nothing, spin my head around Like the love I had, in a border town. Well her smile was brighter than the desert stars And her legs, they were golden tan Those big brown eyes seemed to make me feel Like she never would have hurt a man And every evening, she’d swear to me that someday we would both ride out Letras de cancionesAnd I hung on tight to every word she said Guess I never had a reason to doubt No, I never had a reason to doubt. (Repeat Chorus) Got off one night and I stopped by And they said she had ran away With some young man from New Mexico Who had just got to town that day Now every evening, I sit right here And I drink my tequila down. Hoping someday, she’ll think about me And come back to this old border town Yeah, get back to this old border town. (Repeat Chorus) Sun’s going down on the border tonight She’s got that red dress on It’s been a while now since I’ve held her tight And I still can’t believe she’s gone. Oh girl. Oh, in a border town.
