Lyrics & Music by Josh Pastor

lyrics

Static in the air
trouble on the road
Las Cruzes in the rear view mirror
Tommy two snake driving close
If I don't cross the border lord
I'll be dead in El Paso

Well Tom he was hustler
From Memphis Tennessee
One day he looked the other way
And I took all I could steal
Lord he's driving closer now
That weapon pointing at my door
I was on the road to Mexico
Now I'm dead in El Paso

Now I ride a pale horse
My horse is a black 442
See me snaking round the bend
Down old highway 62
Forever here I shake my bones
Cause I'm dead in El Paso
