Well I left lonesome dove,

hold the country above

and the soft warmth of a touch through the night.

I hated to be leaving,

but it was cutting the season.

She was standing there with water in her eyes.

In Durango, Colorado, I held the necklace that I bought her

while tipping one at the Diamond Belsenlid.

And I hitched up to Wyoming with the man who didn't know

He said he had some ponies up for sale

It's a Coke and Pepsi world

They can have the old thing girl

As long as I know your love is true

Everybody's chasing that glory

Long it's the same old story but I got all my money down on you When I finally made Montana, I could only think of my anna, in the sweet grass hills hills I could almost hear her voice

This country it just grows

That's progress I suppose

Red, white or blue, you're my only choice

It's a coat and Pepsi world

They can have the old pain girl

As long as I know your love is true

Everybody's chasing that glory Lord, it's the same old store
