Sides face, grand square
She met him one night in Laredo
Just a wild comanchero, they say
They told her that he'd been an outlaw
And she'd have to send him away
Allemande and weave
Meet me tonight in Laredo
Dosado and promeno
Meet me tonight in Laredo
We'll soon be in old Mexico

Heads (Sides) touch 1/4 and the boys run to the right
Reverse your flutter wheel tonight
She's in the lead, dixie style to make an ocean wave
Step thru and then courtesy turn
Square thru three in Laredo
Swing and promenade you go
Meet me tonight in Laredo
We'll soon be in old Mexico

Sides face, grand square
The night as they slipped through the darkness
To the trail where their horses were tied
He whispered a prayer for tomorrow
That she would be safe by his side
Allemande and weave
Meet me tonight in Laredo
Wait till the moon's hanging low
Meet me tonight in Laredo
We'll soon be in old Mexico

Sides face, grand square
Now in their own hacienda
In the glow of a soft candle light
The hands that once held a sixgun
Are holding their baby tonight
Allemande and weave
Meet me tonight in Laredo
Wait till the moon's hanging low
Meet me tonight in Laredo
We'll soon be in old Mexico
