   G                C          G
   Livin' on the road my friend
   G                C         G
   You know that your time will come
   G                C          G
   And if you are ever in need
   A7                D       G
   Just call on me, I'll be there

   G                C        G
   Pancho was a bandit, boy
   G               C         G
   His horse was fast as polished steel
   G                C        G
   He wore a gun outside his pants
   A7                D       G
   For all the honest world to feel

   G               C         G
   Pancho met his match, you know
   G               C         G
   In the form of Lefty, he did say
   G                C         G
   But Lefty he was always there
   A7               D        G
   To help him ride away

   G               C         G
   And as the story goes along
   G                C          G
   There’s a tale of love and loss
   G               C         G
   Pancho’s gone but Lefty stays
   A7               D       G
   To carry on at any cost
