[00:21.73]Needing sleep and hot and dirty on I drove through Alberquerque [00:25.67]I had one eye on the mirror for the law [00:29.27]When I pulled in for some gasoline six house from El Paso [00:32.63]Seemed New Mexico went on for evermore [00:36.30]I was talkin' to the pump man and you should have seen him jump man [00:40.20]When I told him I was heading for the Heights [00:43.66]He said “Wait on 'til tomorrow 'cos a few miles from Socorro [00:47.13]Is a place you'll never leave by light of night [00:50.42]There's only buzzards and lizards and ornerary critturs [00:54.59]You've run out of luck if you get stuck in Trombone Gulch [01:00.21]Well I laughed and left him standing put a big tip in his hand [01:03.63]And drove on out ignoring all his shouts of thanks [01:07.09]But a few miles from Socorro I discovered to my horror [01:10.64]That his shouts had meant he hadn't filled the tank [01:13.71]I knew I wasn't beaten yet I stumbled from the sedan [01:17.92]Cursing everyone from Satan up to God [01:23.95] [01:37.87]And I pushed it to ledge and pushed it out across the edge [01:44.76]And knew the law would never see it from the road [01:51.79]And the dust came like a blizzard I got bitten by a lizard [01:55.58]And I fell down into canyons all the time [01:59.19]But I kept the road beside me 'cos I had to have it guide me [02:02.62]All the way to safety and the borderline [02:06.13]There's only buzzards and lizards and ornerary critturs [02:09.94]You've run out of luck if you get stuck in Trombone Gulch [02:15.10]When the sun came up from sleepin' and the morning came in creeping [02:18.57]I could see a signpost just on up ahead [02:22.18]It said Welcome to Socorro Did you like to ride our trombone [02:25.73]It goes right around the valley on a bend [02:28.95]There's only buzzards and lizards and ornerary critturs You've run out of luck if you get stuck in Trombone Gulch [02:38.38]
