"Adios Old Friend" lyrics

"Adios Old Friend"
(originally by Nashville Cast)

You were headed
For some border town
To find a Spanish rose
And settle down
You hitched a ride
On a southbound Mexican wind
Adios old friend

I heard you made it
Far as El Paso
Those Texas rangers
Would not let it go
They shot you down
On the banks of the Rio Grande
Adios old friend

Do angels sing for outlaws?
Well I don't know
But I know outlaws pray
And I pray it's so
Old friend

Outside these bars
I hear that mission bell
That hangman waits
To send me straight to hell
Well this ain't where I thought
Our trail would end
Adios old friend

Do angels sing for outlaws?
Well I don't know
But I know outlaws pray
And I pray it's so
Old friend

Maybe one day we'll ride again
Adios old friend
Adios old friend
