Lyrics:
Far across the blue waters
Lives an old German's daughter
By the banks of the old river Rhine
Where I loved her and left her
But I can't forget
Anger and lust my senses running amok
Bewildered and deluded, have I been hit by a truck?
When my tongue lay inside his lip
Felt like the time in
cold
But I'll get by so long as I can
Throw that rope and brand that calf dream of a girl in a photograph
I got no home I got no wife but I'll be
Three or four rodeos
Might have been her dream cowboy
But she'll never know
Riding like the wind
Feeling so alive
The wind in her hair
As time goes by the tales grow taller
About possum in possum hollar.
As a young man I'd go a courtin'
With my sweetheart named Sally Blair
Down
Far across the blue waters
Lives an old German's daughter
By the banks of the old river Rhine
Where I loved her and left her
But I can't forget
Come take me by my trembling hand
And hold me close to you
And think of all the days gone by
The days when love was true
Come go with me to the old
Snuggled on your shoulder
Cuddled in your arms
Dreaming while I'm dancing
Thrilled by all your charms
While the music's playing i'm in ecstasy
linen as cold as the clay
""I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy""
These words he did say as I proudly stepped by
""Come sit down beside me
sweetheart
You only left the load I care
Now that you're down
I'm going to stick by you
If you will only say
Your roamin' days are through
Well now
Just follow after me
Gon' and do the 2 step then cowboy boogie
Grab your sweetheart and spin out with 'em
Do the hoedown and get into it (whoo,
I say, baby, don't you cry
You know I'll soon discover
One day by and by
That you loved another
No matter what you say
I'm gonna leave you
cowboy's been throwed.
This ain't the first I've seen this dog and pony show.
This ain't my first rodeo.
You're telling me you lost you're wedding band.
I still miss someone
At my door the leaves are falling
The cold wild wind will come
Sweethearts walk by together
And I still miss someone
I
She's a boxcar rollin' by
Like a black star in the sky
She's a failure once or twice
Like a trailer spinnin' out upon dizzy ice
Flowers fly
An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed
At my door the leaves are falling
The cold, wild wind will come
Sweethearts walk by together
And I still miss someone
No, I never got over
I say, baby, don't you cry
You know I'll soon discover
One day by and by
That you loved another
No matter what you say
I'm gonna leave you
An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed
At my door the leaves are falling
The cold wild wind will come
Sweethearts walk by together
And I still miss someone
I go out on a party
[Chorus]
Oh the ways of the world, and the wants of a woman
If I figured them all out 'twould take many years
I once had a sweetheart
an old cowboy went ridin out one dark and windy day
upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
when all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows
And then we strolled that golden sand
Two sweethearts
And that summer wind
Like painted kites
Days and nights went flyin' by
The world was new
Round my door the leaves are falling
A cold wild wind will come
Sweethearts walk by together
And I still miss someone
No I never got over those
