A blooming rose in a bed of sand

In Lonesome Dove, Lonesome Dove
Verse:
She watched her boy grow to a man
He had an angel's heart and the devil's hand
He wore his star for all to see
He was a Texas lawman legacy
Then one day word blew into town
It seemed the men who shot his father down
Had robbed a bank in Cherico
The only thing 'tween them and Mexico
Was Lonsome Dove
Verse:
The shadows stretched across the land
As the shots rang out down the Rio Grande
And when the smoke had finally cleared the street
The men lay at the ranger's feet
But legend tells to this very day
That shots were comin' from an alleyway
'Through no one knows who held the gun
There ain't no doubt if you ask someone
in Lonesome Dove
Repeat Chorus:
