lirik lagu utah phillips - dog canyon
dog canyon
ten thousand shorth-rns are moving in fast,
they drink lots of water, they eat lots of gr-ss;
your penny stockbrokers have made quite a change,
now our old outfit’s drove to the edge of the range.
in canyon del perro there’s grapes on the vine,
the water runs sweet as an old spanish wine,
the high tularosas they make a fine home
for a man who don’t mind living up there alone.
young perry altman was burned out last night,
they shot george mcdonald ’cause he wanted to fight,
the days of the longh-rn are over i guess
when your syndicate gunmen have run out the rest.
way up in dog canyon old frenchie holds out,
half-blind and crippled but he never knows drouth;
he has the good water. tell me what would you do
if you had to protect it from billy mcnew?
he dreams of a village where the sun always shines,
and he dreams of his family when it comes christmas time,
now he dreams in his doorway with a gun in his hand,
and oliver lee says “you crazy old man.”
well frenchie he fires but the shot it goes wide,
he falls to the floor with a hole in his side,
and his water runs down to the ranches below
when the high tularosas are covered with snow.
