lyrics

In the early light of day sometimes I can still hear her say
Please don't ride with the boys today
But an outlaw never listens anyway
It was a cold cowboy goodbye; I didn't have an alibi
She said, The price on your head is high
Wanted men don't come back alive

Blue sky, sage and snow
The piñon burning low
Morning mission bell
Emilia, farewell
Farewell

We had the drop on the Feds; they were all left for dead
How could I've know it was my head
My brothers would fill with lead?
They saw the fear in my eyes as they laughed and let those bullets fly
I fell face down in the night; they took the gold
And left me there to die

Blue sky, sage and snow
The piñon burning low
Morning mission bell
Emilia, farewell
Farewell
Emilia, farewell
Farewell
