267:, Nelson states that when he asked Van Zandt what the song was about Van Zandt replied that he didn't know. Nelson also recalls how his album with Haggard was nearly completed but he felt they didn't have "that blockbuster, you know, that one big song for a good single and a video, and my daughter Lana suggested that we listen to 'Pancho and Lefty.'

You ever heard that song Pancho and Lefty? I wrote that', and they looked back around and they looked at each other and started grinning..." The policemen explained that their police-radio code names were Pancho and Lefty and they let Van Zandt off with a warning. 206:(who, previously, claim they could have had Pancho at any time, but "out of kindness, I suppose" - likely, the kindness of bribes - let him continue his actions) in exchange for being allowed to return to the US.

A final extended refrain extends the two-verse refrain to three. 4125: 213:, Van Zandt does not rule out the idea. In an interview, he recalled, "I realize that I wrote it, but it's hard to take credit for the writing, because it came from out of the blue. It came through me and it's a real nice song, and I think, I've finally found out what it's about. I've always wondered what it's about. I kinda always knew it wasn't about Pancho Villa, and 275:
like that. It took four and a half days and that video was four and a half minutes long...The money goes by a strange life, or elsewhere. I mean it doesn't come to me. But money's not the question. I would like if I could write a song that would somehow turn one five-year-old girl around to do right. Then I've done good. That's what I care about."

also appears in a supporting role.

Van Zandt appears in the video for the song, playing one of the Mexican federales. "It was real nice they invited me," Van Zandt told Aretha Sills in 1994. "They didn't have to invite me and I made I think $ 100 a day. I was the captain of the federales. And plus I got to ride a horse. I always
