Song of Wyoming Songtext
von John Denver

Well, I′m weary and tired, I've done my day′s ridin'
Nighttime is rollin' my way
The sky′s all on fire and the light′s slowly fading
Peaceful and still ends the day
Out on the trail, a night bird is callin'
Singin′ his wild melody
Down in the canyon, cottonwood whispers
A song of Wyoming for me


Well, I wandered around in the town and the city
Tried to figure the how and the why
I've stopped all my schemin′, I'm just driftin′ and dreamin'
Watchin' the river roll by
Here comes that big ol′ prairie moon risin′
Shinin' down bright as can be
Up on the hill, there′s a coyote singin'
A song of Wyoming for me

Now it′s whiskey and tobacco, and bitter black coffee
A lonesome old dogie am I
Wakin' up on the range, Lord, I feel like an angel
Feel like I almost could fly
Drift like a cloud, out over the badlands
Sing like a bird in the tree
The wind in the sage sounds like Heaven singin′
A song of Wyoming for me
A song of Wyoming for me
