Yeah, I hate to admit technically and vocally this is better than Merle and Willie... Ouch, that hurt.. That said, Willie and Merle had more of being.....real... as in being in the moment.... witnessed it somehow.. difficult to explain.. I'll listen to either version..

I am now nearly 70 from the north of England, As a kid, I used to view country as "Top yourself music" but we all mature, Willy Nelson got me into country. This song is perhaps the best crafted I have heard across all genres, "The dust that poncho bit down south, ended up in Lefty's mouth!" Pure magical lyrics

Really changes the song: the Federales did not let Pancho "slip away", they let him :hang around" Then they let Lefty slip away after his part in Pancho's demise (the dust that Pancho bit down south ended up ind Lefty's mouth), and then let Lefty "go so WRONG" in the last chorus (what he did to Pancho).
