[Verse 1]
Across the alley from the Alamo
Lived a pinto pony and a Navajo
Who sang a sort of Indian hi-de-ho
To the people passing by
[Verse 2]
The pinto spent his time a swishin' flies
And the Navajo watched the lazy skies
And very rarely did they ever rest their eyes
On the people passing by
[Bridge]
One day they went a-walkin'
Along the railroad track
They were swishin', not lookin'
Toot, toot, they never came back
[Verse 3]
Across the alley from the Alamo
Whеn the summer sun decidеs to settle low
A fly sings an Indian hi-de-ho
To the people passing by
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
One day they went a-walkin'
Along the railroad track
They were swishin', not lookin'
Toot, toot, they never came back
[Verse 3]
Across the alley from the Alamo
When the summer sun decides to settle low
A fly sings an Indian hi-de-ho
To the people passing by
