feller all dressed in green armor With a laser in his hands he looked ready to fight I can see by your helmet that you're a Mandalorian You can see by my jetpack I'm a Mandalorian too You can see by our armor that we're both Mandalorians Get yourself some Beskar iron, and be Mandalorian too Once in the Sarlacc I was slowly digesting Once in the Sarlacc I was dissolving away But now in my new armor I'm gallant and dashing And Captain Han Solo is going to pay They will beat the drums softly and play the pipes slowly When Dengar and I gun the Corellian down For nobody lives long when they cross a Mandalorian Let's capture that pirate and get out of this town Derivative musical works Billy Bragg has cited this ballad as the musical inspiration for his version of Woody Guthrie's "The Unwelcome Guest". "No Man's Land" (sometimes known as "Green Fields of France"), written in 1976 by Eric Bogle, makes use of a similar melody and contains the refrain "did they beat the drums slowly, did they play the fifes lowly". The song "Streets of the East Village" by The Dan Emery Mystery Band shows a definite influence from this song as well. The song "Streets of Whitechapel" sung by J. C. Carroll is an updated version of this ballad. The composer Samuel Barber adapted a variation on the "Streets of Laredo" tune as the principal theme in the "Allegretto" movement of Excursions, op. 20. The tune was used for The Homing Waltz, a song written by Johnny Reine and Tommie Connor and recorded by Vera Lynn in 1952. Different words and a chorus were added in 1960 under the title "Only The Heartaches" by Wayne P. Walker, with additional words by Jess Edwins and Terry Kennedy. It was a minor hit in some countries by Houston Wells and The Marksmen and has been recorded by many other artists. The chorus begins "There's gold in the mountains, gold in the valleys..." The song "Blackwatertown" by The Handsome Family is another updated version of this song, framing the narrator's downfall as the resultant of an affair with a young woman employed in the publishing industry. It was released on The Rose And The Briar, a 2004 CD compilation and companion to The Rose & the Briar: Death, Love and Liberty in the American Ballad,
