Ride Cowboy Ride

歌詞

Ride, cowboy, ride Don't ride too slow Tucson's a mighty long way yet to go He started his long ride in Prescott The sun was a hundred or more On down he rode at full gallop Into the flat desert floor Driving the big herd to Flagstaff In Prescott the letter was there Happiness soon would be sorrow Sad news the letter did bear Ride, cowboy, ride Don't go too slow Ride, cowboy, ride You've a long way to go Your darlin' now lies on her deathbed Racked by fever and pain Reaching for you at her bedside At each breath she's callin' your name Forward he leaned in the saddle Pushing through mesquite and sage His head never raised for a greeting As he passed the Wickenburg stage Ride, cowboy, ride Don't ride too slow Tucson's a mighty long way to go In Phoenix he traded horses Now on the back of this roan He could see visions of Tucson His darlin' and their lovely home Ride, cowboy, ride Don't ride too slow There's still a hundred and twenty to go In through the ranch gate he galloped And without breaking his stride He bounded out of the saddle And rushed to his sweet darlin's side Then as the dyin' girl saw him A smile came over her face Holding her hand as it tightened Barely had he won the race Ride, cowboy, ride On through the blue Ride, cowboy, ride She'll be waiting for you Ride, cowboy, ride On through the blue Ride, cowboy, ride She'll be waiting for you
