    As a James fan from Madrid, Spain, listening him singing in spanish just gives me shivers down my spine. As if I were in some US southern landscape I've never been, riding some horse I've never ride.

    James gives me Warren Zevon vibes. Cause he also has some Spanish songs. Great song, great singer!

    I'm so proud to say my friend Randy Garibay sings background vocals. He's been working with James McMurtry since the painting by numbers album

    How this guy continues to top himself is remarkable. Everytime I think he can't ge anyt better he does.

    Truly a masterpiece from the first line. Love the interplay of Spanish and English evocative of Gene Autry. A deep bow, sir.

    Grew up with these kind of men in Van Horn, Texas on the old Ray Willoby ranch. Hate to see them all go; Por toda la vida

    Fantastic album start to finish! I've played it maybe 30 times so far and each time I pick up on something in the lyrics that helps me appreciate it even more.

    Vaquero
    Song by James McMurtry
    I don't take the paper, I don't watch TV
    I was out on the road when the word got to me
    Well goddamn, the text, couldn't I just have gone blind
    Heard your voice in my ear like I did in my mind
    (chorus)
    mira vaquero (look yonder vaquero)
    se pone el sol (the sun sets)
    buen caballero viajando con Dios (fine horseman, travelling with God)
    mira vaquero (look yonder vaquero)
    no miramos atras (we don’t look back)
    nos vamos al campo (let us go to the cow camp)
    una vez mas, una vez mas (one more time, one more time)
    Your chaps are still dusty from late summer's drouth
    When the cedar turn rusty it's time to go south
    When your time is upon you, you don't always know
    "Brinca la vida, " Abuela nos dijo
    "Brinca la vida, " we learned long ago
    (chorus)
    mira vaquero (look yonder vaquero)
    se pone el sol (the sun sets)
    buen caballero viajando con Dios (fine horseman, travelling with God)
    mira vaquero (look yonder vaquero)
    no miramos atras (we don’t look back)
    nos vamos al campo (let us go to the cow camp)
    una vez mas, una vez mas (one more time, one more time)
    so pour out the coffee and piss on the fire
    I hear hounds in the distance, it’s down to the wire
    make for the cow camp, we might have a chance
    vamonos por el campo en el campo we’ll dance
    vamonos por el campo en el campo we’ll dance
    chorus)
    mira vaquero (look yonder vaquero)
    se pone el sol (the sun sets)
    buen caballero viajando con Dios (fine horseman, travelling with God)
    mira vaquero (look yonder vaquero)
    no miramos atras (we don’t look back)
    nos vamos al campo (let us go to the cow camp)
    una vez mas, una vez mas (one more time, one more time)
