The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
He drink whiskey, Poncho drink the wine
He drink whiskey, Poncho drink the wine
We met down on the Fort of Rio Grande
We met down on the Fort of Rio Grande
Eat the salted peanuts out of can
Eat the salted peanuts out the can
The outlaws had us pinned down at the fort
The outlaws had us pinned down at the fort
Cisco came in blastin', drinkin' port
Cisco came in blastin', drinkin' port
They rode the sunset, horse was made of steel
They rode the sunset, horse was made of steel
Chased a gringo last night through a field
Chased a gringo last night through a field
Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid, he was a friend of mine

Ho ho ho ho, ho ho ho ho ho

We met down on the border; Rio Grande
We met down on the border; Rio Grande
Consider the line-The outlaws had us pinned down at the fort
If it was border, the could just cross right? lol So yeah i don't think it's border because of context of other verses.
Jugheadchad - i think *you* should do some research, and show it to me, considering that you're so passionate on the subject, and I am not.
When Eric Burdon and WAR's success outlasted the mercurial Burdon's attention span, Goldstein was faced with trying to make WAR stand on its own. The result was WAR's 1971 self-entitled debut album. While this album met with only modest success, it laid the groundwork for things to come. "They loved playing live and toured constantly. The experience of making the first album was enlightening to all of us, especially me. I really felt I got an understanding how to make this work and rushed them back into the studio to cut the second album" says Goldstein.
BTW..I'm not passionate, just knowledgable. Google works wonders. Try it sometime.
"We met down at the border Rio Grande"
and...
Chased the gringo rustlers through the field.
