"The Ballad of Tonita Blair"

[Mairead]

The Ballad of Tonyita Blair, as sung by "Slow Hands" Blix and the Mass Distractions

The Texan rode in on a dimpled chad:
"One of my men, well, he's gone bad.
He's got some rifles and stuff that goes bang
We gotta take him out, well dang."
The townsfolk laughed and walked away
But Tonyita, she decided to stay.

Now Tonyita, she sure was fair,
And folks they loved her everywhere
She did good and she talked nice
But the Texan he turned her to vice
He told her things she thought were true
And she did some things she shouldn't do.

When the fighting was done,
And the dead were cold
There weren't no guns,
There was only gold,
Black as the lies that had been told.

Now Tonyita roams this fair land
sighing and wailing and wringing her hands.
And she sings a song to the moon's harsh glow
Saying "Hey look, guys, you know."
She sings it loud, and she sings it long,
How that Texan has done her wrong.
He done her wrong.
He done her wrong.
That Texan done her wrong.
