ModbillyNew Mexico lyrics by The Boxmasters
I can't go back to New Mexico
There's ghosts at the border shaking chains
The skulls scream for pardon row by row
And I remember their names
I need to get back to New Mexico
Most of my conscience lingers there
It calls out to me it won't let me go
And I can't bear
The souls that I left in New Mexico
And the holes that they left in my heart
The souls that I left in New Mexico
And the reasons we drifted apart
It's hard to be the law in New Mexico
It's hard to be a man anywhere
The pain that I caused in New Mexico
Gave me a share
Of the souls that I left in New Mexico
And the land that holds blood to this day
Oh Lord, let me die in New Mexico
And share that old ground where they lay
