Pathway of My Life 1966 - 1986, Pt. 4 of 8
Well across the alley from the Alamo
Lived a pinto pony and a Navajo
Who sang a sort of indian
Hi-de-ho to the people passing by
The pinto spent his time a swishin' flies
And the Navajo watched the lazy skies
And very rarely did they ever rest their eyes
On the people passing by
One day they went out a walkin'
Along the railroad track
They were swishin', not lookin'
They never came back

Across the alley from the alamo
When the summer sun decides to settle low
A fly sings an Indian
Hi-de-ho to the people passing by

One day they went out a walkin'
Along the railroad track
They were swishin', not lookin'
They never came back

Across the alley from the alamo
When the summer sun decides to settle low
A fly sings an Indian
Hi-de-ho to the people passing by
