    LYRICS:
    El Viejo, friend of mine
    I think you left us just in time
    They're outta vodka, no more wine
    I think you left us just in time
    You know I hate to see you leave
    But it ain't no secret you believed
    You was meant for earlier days
    Wilder times and a freer range
    So old compadre Lord I know
    You was likely glad to go
    I hope it's easier in time
    For those of us you left behind
    They ain't dealin' blackjack down at Stockmen’s in Nevada anymore
    And they'd wanna pay you six to five and that ain’t hardly worth playin' for
    All’s I seen was slot machines from wall to wall the whole casino floor
    Nobody hittin’ seventeen playin' against the dealer that's for sure (rest assured)
    (Nobody hittin’ seventeen and worse yet the Commercial's closed its doors)
    Mi amigo, mon ami
    Elko blues, indeed
    You know we did the best we could
    But the shine was off the wood
    We played up most all of your songs
    But with you and Don and Baxter gone
    That sure leaves some boots to fill
    And I’m not sure we ever will
    But on a slightly brighter side
    The Outside Circle guys
    They’re still tearin’ up the Star
    And Capriola's ain't that far
    They ain't dealin' blackjack down at Stockmen’s in Nevada anymore
    And they'd wanna pay you six to five and that ain’t hardly worth playin' for
    All’s I seen was slot machines from wall to wall the whole casino floor
    Nobody hittin’ seventeen playin' against the dealer that's for sure (rest assured)
    (Nobody hittin’ seventeen and worse yet the Commercial's closed its doors)
    El Viejo, friend of mine
    I think you left us just in time

    Well, I'm an official mess. I haven't teared up that much to any one of your songs Corb. This one's a gem, and a real tribute to one of the largest legends in country music the world has seen. The Southern Rockies are my home, and you pay such a tribute to them. This land gets in your blood, and you and Ian wrote that into your songs. Thanks Corb. We'll be seeing you at the Grey Eagle on March 7th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @Buckaroo1971

    Corb, thanks for the song. You knew Mr. Tyson as a friend, we knew him and Mr. Edward's through his music and Mr. Black through his poetry and the back page of Western Horseman. We lost some amazing men. You're doing a damn fine job of filling some boots. I hope we're still listening to your songs when you are in your 80s. Hat's off you!

      I’m not sure where they went, but I’m guessing the stories are memorable, horses are good and the cattle are fat.
      If you made your living off the land then “On the edge of common sense” may have been the most important article in the farm and ranch paper. It helped us relax and have a good laugh at ourselves.

    I think of that Old Coyote ,Ian Tyson often . I rarely drive through Longview without thinking of him.... Driving west on Coal Trail , thinking of Live at Longview. Thinking about hiking with my dog West of Hogg Park along the high cliffs above the Highwood River towards the mountains the day he died. CKUA playing tribute set to Ian Tyson. I lingered in my truck listening as Dog wandered and circled the truck saying lets go... lets hit the trail.I spent a wee moment or two sitting looking west up the River valley , watching the Sun sink slowly into the Rockies. Thinking this was The Old Coyotes back yard.I was hopping he was with his Coyote Queen . Dog my Coyote Dog Rescue off the Reservation and I headed back to 4X4 went to Town . I dropped in to The Longview Bar had a couple of Beers , bought some whiskey shots for the few patrons there , Toasted and leaving stopped in for some Longview Beef Jerky. Dog always insists. In life as we live we need to look for it;s ''Gifts" Great song as always by the way.. I will wave at The Grey Eagles Calgary Show Senior Corb.

    This song reminds me of a meme after David Bowie died about how extraordinary it is/has been to exist during the same time and in a world when a musician gave so much. It's such a gift. Especially if we can take in the ride while we are riding. Ian Tyson gave this life so much. Thank you Corb for this tribute to your friend and mentor. ❤️

    I saw Ian Tyson shortly befor his voice went. Some guy kept yelling Bob Fudge. Ian called him out saying "I dont take dictations, you yell that again and we arn't playing it" pretty sure the guy got lynched after the show.
    It was an honor to shake his hand.
    Thank you for the song, you were the right person to sing it.

    Thank you for doing this, Corb. I’ve got a little tear in my eyes. I passed Ian and his band, playing Someday Soon in the exhibit hall on the last night of the Cutting Futurity back in 2008.. No one around but some folks cleaning up, and I wish I would have gone up and shook his hand, but I didn’t know at the time who I was in the presence of. I regret that day, but Here’s to you, great son of Alberta!

    "Stockmen's" reffered to in this song is Stockmen's Casino in Elko, Nevada. A sad sign of the times that the casino has switched from in-person poker games to electronic slot machines. Certainly not Ian Tyson's era anymore. Ian Tyson refers to Stockmen's in his song "MC Horses" about the sale of one of Oregon's last great remudas.

    George Jones had a song gonna fill their 4:16 that is a very pointian question. Corb thank you for remembering very talented singers and poets, we have no body that is going to fill Ian's,Baxter,Don and several others boots these men all were talented and understood how to entertain the public. There are a few like you, Corb, that learned from these men. County Music still haven't filled the boots of Marty, Conway, Rex Allen Sr, Roy, Gene, Waylon,Merel, George and several others and Toby. Thank you God for having Corb Lund remembering the talented men of Elko

      I am assuming you mean North America, since this is one Canadian singing about another. One could say that, the many indigenous languages, Old Norse, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and French all pre date English in the Americas, and have a place in American culture. So maybe wake up instead of complaining about people who did not sleep through grade school.
