Adios my compadre it’s time we must part
The memories we’ve gathered are dear to my heart
We climbed the high hills and we’ve laughed at the moon
Our time spent together has ended too soon

You’ve been my companion through thick and through thin
There’s not been a challenge that we didn’t win
We battled the best and we come out on top
But now my amigo it’s time we must stop

Since you were a colt I knew you were the best
At ridin the prairie you outdid the rest
We galloped the trails and we followed the sun
This cowboy must tell you it’s been lots of fun


A better amigo there never will be
That’s why I must free you from this agony
I wish it were me and not you there my friend
I couldn’t have guessed this is how it would end

If there is a heaven I’ll meet with you there
We’ll show old Saint Peter that we were a pair
We’ll find us a trail somewhere up in the sky
How could I prepare for the day you would die

This bullet is meant so that you’ll be in peace
I’ve pulled on the hammer now I must release
My hand can’t stop shakin my aim is untrue
By far it’s the hardest thing I’ve had to do

The look in your eye tells me that you agree
I’ll pull on the trigger and I’ll set you free
We’ll soon be together this you can rely
Adios my compadre I bid you goodbye
