Lyrics
I'll sing you a song of a lovely dark lady
Her smile is as broad as the prairie is wide
I reach for her now, my heartfelt companion
And imagine her here by my side
Pain in my body, I climb in the saddle
Fighting the sun and the wind as I ride
Like a shot from a 6-gun 'cross green, grassy meadows
I long to be near by her side
Long are the days and longer the evenings
I stare at the walls of this room where I hide
Enduring each moment, in old Wonder Valley
I long to be near by her side
Rain drizzles down, the cattle are lowing
Sunset to daybreak, the stars are my guides
On a search, never-ending, in vain for the maiden
I know cannot be by my side
Returning to camp, my mind is tormented
But the tear in my heart is now swelling with pride
For I know that she's waiting, I fall to my pillow
And dream of her here by my side
