Sonidos en Rojo (XII) Guy and Susanna Clark over the Red River

From Palo Duro Canyon outside Amarillo Texas 

The prairie dog town fork of the Red River flows 

Headed cross the plains along the coast of Oklahoma 

To the Mississippi River and the Gulf of Mexico (...)

My great grandfather came to that Red River line 

And camped on the north side until it was time 

To cross or to stay to be sooner or not 

He headed south to San Antone they said he liked it hot

Red River I know you I know you of old 

You have filled up my pockets with quicksand and gold 

Susanna oh Susanna when it comes my time 

Bury me south of that Red River line

Here's to Charlie Goodnight and Mr. Loving too 

Here's to Coronado, the Comanche, and the blues 

Here's to the bootleggers and the oilfield crews 

Here's to the one and all of us Red River fools
