Up on the Divide Songtext

Go cinch up the saddle, ol′ Dunny and me
We'll drive up the cattle where the snows used to be
I ain′t much for nothin', but still I can ride

And the springtime's a-comin′ up on the divide
Springtime′s a-comin' up on the divide

Ol′ Charlie, he sold out, lost everything
A '52 Chevy and a Navajo ring
Busted, flat broke, and split open wide

And the springtime′s a-comin' up on the divide
Springtime′s a-comin' up on the divide

Well, my granddaddy died here in 1903
He left his old shotgun my daddy gave me
I hope there's some place we can all rope and ride


′Cause the springtime′s a-comin' up on the divide
Springtime′s a-comin' up on the divide

Well, that grave on the hillside is long overgrown
Been 22 years since I gathered stones
And 22 more since I made her my bride

And the springtime′s a-comin' up on the divide
Springtime′s a-comin' up on the divide

Now the coal company man wants to eat up your coal
First to swallow your cattle, and then he'll swallow your soul
He′ll dig you a grave ′bout ten acres wide

And the springtime's a-comin′ up on the divide
The springtime's a-comin′ up on the divide
Yes, the springtime's a-comin′ up on the divide
The springtime's a-comin' up on the divide
