I'm gon' run away to Tucumcari
Make camp where the land is bare
I'm gon' run away to Tucumcari
Ain't no one gonna find me there
Ain't no one gonna find me there

Found trouble in the town I come from
Left six months ago or so
I had to run from the man I wronged there
With no aim as to where to go

And I'm told that the law ain't there yet
And the ones who tried are dead
But if the lawman come to find me
I'll make that river red
I'll make that river red

I'm gon' run away to Tucumcari
Kick dust up the riverbed
And in the shadow of the Spanish fortress
I'll lay my weary head
To an Indian girl, I'll marry
On a calico horse, we'll ride
I won't leave until I'm dead and buried
With the silver in the mountainside

I'm gon' run away to Tucumcari
Kick dust up the river bed
In the shadow of the Spanish fortress
I'll lay my weary head
To an Indian girl I'll marry
On a calico horse, we'll ride
I won't leave until I'm dead and buried
With the silver in the mountainside

I'm gon' run away to Tucumcari
Make camp where the land is bare
I'm gon' run away to Tucumcari
Ain't no one gonna find me
